American Architecture: from Bungalow to Bauhaus Art 1630H Yeshiva College Spring 2016
American Architecture: From Bungalow to Bauhaus Art 1630H Yeshiva College Spring 2016 S Y L L A B U S By comparing buildings from different eras and from different cultures, we shall learn about the diverse traditions of American architecture, from its colonial beginnings to post-modern practices. The result will be the basis for an architectural vocabulary and a greater consciousness of the built environment. We shall examine what the first colonists found, what they created, and what they brought with them from Europe. Thus, observations on numerous references to roots in European design will bring us to an initial definition of the nature of American architecture. We shall develop an understanding of the vigor and innovations of its building arts. We shall examine not only work of the masters of the discipline, but also architecture without architects. This introductory course will include lecture, discussion, critical written analysis, and oral presentations by each class member. Frequent visits to architectural sites will highlight materials, form, ornamentation, and context. Meeting times Tuesday, 6:45-9:15 p.m. (May occasionally run until 9:45 p.m.) Furst Hall Instructor Paul Glassman, M. Arch., M.B.A. Telephone 917.434.0954 (cell) Electronic mail [email protected] General course requirements Attendance at all but one class is required; each additional absence will lower your grade by 1/3 (e. g., A- to B+). Three absences will result in a reduction by one full letter (e. g., A- to B-). Four absences will result in a failing grade (F). Please notify the instructor via e-mail in advance of the class you will be missing. -

The standard of a quarter-mile walk is used for open space resources less than 6 acres and a half-mile walk is used for resources 6 acres or more as well as parks with outdoor pools. The walk analysis excludes open space resources that are not always accessible to the general public, like community gardens, nature areas without trails or other access, concessions, cemeteries, and undeveloped property. NYC Parks properties also excluded: standalone buildings and institutions, triangles and plazas less than 0.20-acres, parkways without active-play resources, strips and malls.

Landmarks Preservation Commission January 27, 1976, Number 1 LP-0898 LESCAZE HOUSE, 211 East 43th Street Borough of Manhattan. Built 1933-34; archite~t William Lescaze. ' Landl'.lark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1322, Lot 107. On September 23, 1975, the Landmarks Preservation Cor.~ission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Land~ark of the Lescnze House and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No.2). 1be hearing was continued to November 25, 1975 (Item No. 1). B'oth hearings had been duly ~vertised in accordance with the provisior.s of law. A total of three Wltnesses spoke in favor of designation at the two hearings. ~~ry Lescaze, owner of the house, has given her approval of the designation. There were no speakers in opposition to designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The Lescaze House of 1933-34, desi~ed by William Lescaze for his own use as a co~bined residence and architectural office, is an ernbodiDent of the theory and practice of one of the most influential exponents of modern archi tecture in the United States. His go~l -- the creation of an architecture expressive of the spirit and life of the 20th century and of each client•s' indi vidual roquirements -- is fully r~aiizcd in this house by an ha~onious - design of deceptive siEplicity, dete~ined by a rational, functional plan, and developed through the use of the newest available technology, materials and Ee~ods of co~struction. The sudden appearance on East 48th Street of this startlingly "raodern" facade of 1934, set between deteriorating brownstones of the post-Civil War period, had a drama. -
Chapter 5: Shadows
Chapter 5: Shadows A. INTRODUCTION This chapter presents the detailed shadow study that was conducted to determine whether the proposed One Vanderbilt development would cast any new shadows on sunlight-sensitive resources. Sunlight-sensitive resources can include parks, playgrounds, residential or office plazas, and other publicly accessible open spaces; sunlight-dependent features of historic resources; and important natural features such as water bodies. Since the preparation of the shadow analysis in the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS), the height of the proposed One Vanderbilt development was increased. The shadow analysis in this Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) has been revised to reflect this change including Figures 5-1 to 5-22 and 5-27. PRINCIPAL CONCLUSIONS This analysis compared shadows that would be cast by the proposed One Vanderbilt development, which would be built to a floor area ratio (FAR) of 30, with those that would be cast by the 15 FAR building that would be developed absent the proposed actions (the 15 FAR No-Action building). As described below, the analysis concluded that the proposed 30 FAR One Vanderbilt development would cast new shadows on Bryant Park, the west windows of Grand Central Terminal’s main concourse and several other sunlight-sensitive resources. However, the new shadows would be limited in extent, duration and effects and would not result in any significant adverse shadow impacts, as demonstrated in detail below. B. DEFINITIONS AND METHODOLOGY This analysis has been prepared in accordance with CEQR procedures and follows the guidelines of the 2014 City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) Technical Manual. DEFINITIONS Incremental shadow is the additional, or new, shadow that a structure resulting from a project would cast on a sunlight-sensitive resource. -

Morris B. Sanders Studio & Apartment
Landmarks Preservation Commission November 18, 2008; Designation List 407 LP-2267 MORRIS B. SANDERS STUDIO & APARTMENT 219 East 49th Street, Manhattan. Built 1934-35; Morris B. Sanders, architect. Landmarks Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1323, Lot 10. On October 30, 2007, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of the Morris B. Sanders Studio & Apartment and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 10). The hearing had been advertised in accordance with provisions of law. A representative of the owner spoke in opposition to designation. Two witnesses spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of the Historic Districts Council and the Landmarks Conservancy. In addition, the Commission received three letters in support of designation, including one from Manhattan Community Board Six. Summary Morris B. Sanders, Jr. designed and built 219 East 49th Street in 1934-35. Located in the Turtle Bay section of Manhattan, between Second and Third Avenues, this building was one of the earliest structures in New York City to adapt the aesthetic principles pioneered by Le Corbusier and other European modernists starting in the 1920s. Whereas the nearby Lescaze House, considered to be the first truly modern-style residence in New York City, was built on East 48th Street as an alteration to an existing structure in 1934, the 5½ story Sanders Studio & Apartment was an entirely new structure. Planned with two duplex apartments and an office for Sanders on the first floor, the upper stories are cantilevered and clad with blue glazed brick and several types of glass. -
