Action Classification and Type SEQRA Classification UNLISTED TYPE I: Specify Category (see 6 NYCRR 617.4 and NYC Executive Order 91 of 1977, as amended): 617.4(b)(9) Action Type (refer to Chapter 2, “Establishing the Analysis Framework” for guidance) LOCALIZED ACTION, SITE SPECIFIC LOCALIZED ACTION, SMALL AREA GENERIC ACTION 4. Project Description The proposed development consists of mixed‐income housing, affordable senior housing, program and office space for the Chinese American Planning Council (CPC), space for the Beth Hamedrash Hagodol (BHH) synagogue, and retail uses. The proposed development would consist of two independent buildings linked by a landscaped interior courtyard totaling 462,142 gsf of development. One building would be a 30‐story, 310‐foot tall mixed‐use, high‐rise building with 316,421 gsf of residential space, approximately 40,222 gsf of space to be owned by CPC, and approximately 18,788 gsf of retail space. The second building would be a 16‐story, approximately 165‐foot tall Affordable Independent Residence for Seniors (AIRS) building with 82,923 gsf of residential space and 3,788 gsf of space to be owned as an independent condominium unit by BHH. The BHH space is intended to be used as a community facility use for use as a worship space and a Jewish cultural heritage space but BHH may elect to convert this space on an as‐of‐right basis to a commercial use (e.g., office use) in the future. Because of the small size of this space, the impacts of community facility and commercial use in this space are likely to be similar, and for purposes of a conservative environmental review, the BHH space will be assessed as a community facility. The proposed development would have approximately 488 residential units inclusive of up to 208 affordable residences composed of up to 93 Mandatory Inclusionary Housing (MIH) and 115 AIRS residences, representing overall affordability of approximately 40% across the proposed development. Separate from the proposed development, the owner of Lot 95 would develop a commercial addition on Lot 95 totaling approximately 4,759 gsf. Altogether, the With Action condition would total 466,901 gsf of new development.

  • Judah David Eisenstein and the First Hebrew Encyclopedia
    1 Abstract When an American Jew Produced: Judah David Eisenstein and the First Hebrew Encyclopedia Between 1907 and 1913, Judah David Eisenstein (1854–1956), an amateur scholar and entrepreneurial immigrant to New York City, produced the first modern Hebrew encyclopedia, Ozar Yisrael. The Ozar was in part a traditionalist response to Otsar Hayahdut: Hoveret l’dugma, a sample volume of an encyclopedia created by Asher Ginzberg (Ahad Ha’am)’s circle of cultural nationalists. However, Eisenstein was keen for his encyclopedia to have a veneer of objective and academic respectability. To achieve this, he assembled a global cohort of contributors who transcended religious and ideological boundaries, even as he retained firm editorial control. Through the story of the Ozar Yisrael, this dissertation highlights the role of America as an exporter of Jewish culture, raises questions about the borders between Haskalah and cultural nationalism, and reveals variety among Orthodox thinkers active in Jewish culture in America at the turn of the twentieth century.

  • Congregation Khal Adath Jeshurun with Anshe Lubz), 12-16 Eldridge Street, Borough of Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission July 8, 1980, Designation List 134 LP-1107 ELDRIDGE STREET SYNAGOGUE (Congregation Khal Adath Jeshurun with Anshe Lubz), 12-16 Eldridge Street, Borough of Manhattan. Built 1886-87; architects Herter Brothers. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan, Tax Map Block 293, Lot 3. On December 11, 1979, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the propos ed des ignation as a Landmark of the Eldridge Street Synagogue (Congregation Khal Adath Jeshurun with Anshe Lubz) and the prop~sed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 13). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Nine witnesses spoke in favor of designation. There were no speakers in opposition to designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The Synagogue of Khal Adath Jeshurun with Anshe Lubz, more famil­ iarly known as the Eldridge Street Synagogue, was the first and finest synagogue erected on the Lower East Side by the Orthodox East European Ashkenazic Jews. Now an impressive monument to the American immigrant experience, it was built in 1886-87 by the architectural firm of Herter Brothers, and stands today as an enduring symbol of the Lower East Side as it thrived during the last decades of the 19th century. The imposing pressed brick and terra-cotta facade features elements of Moorish, Goth­ ic, and Romanesque design, a combination which later would be used fre­ quently by the Herter Brothers in their numerous designs for tenements in the Lower East Side. Although the early history of the congregation remains obscure, it is known that Khal Adath Jeshurun (Community of the People of Is­ rael) was the result of the union of two Ashkenazic congregations: Beth Hamedrash (House of Study) and Holche Josher Wizaner (Those who walk in Righteousness).
