  • Study Guide August 13-16 2020
    Study Guide August 13-16 2020 1 Dramaturg’s Note by Shannon Montague I am an educator. My entire life has been focused on the premise that curiosity is a gift with never-ending benefits. The more we seek to understand, the better. When I set out to create a packet of key terms for the cast of In the Heights, I didn’t think it would become the show’s ​ ​ official Study Guide, and that I would become the show’s dramaturg. I simply wanted to illuminate the world that Lin-Manuel Miranda created, complete with characters who are multi-layered and a world that spans generations. I not only sought to share what I knew, but also, more importantly, to understand what I didn’t know. I lived in the same time as Big Pun. I made mixtapes. Our cast did not. Miranda understands Latinx culture and growing up in New York City. I do not. What we all understand is that musical theater and the arts have power. That’s why we are here. I simply sought to fill the gaps. There are moments in this show that resonate across generations. The character Sonny in his solo rap during the song “96,000” says: “What about immigration?/ Politicians be hatin’./ Racism in this nation’s gone from latent to blatant./ I’ll cash my ticket and picket, invest in protest,/ never lost my focus till the city takes notice/ and you know this man! I’ll never sleep/ because the ghetto has a million promises/ for me to keep!” Whether you were alive in 1999 when Miranda was writing his earliest draft of the show or in 1943 when Abuela Claudia arrived in New York or you just know today, seven years since #BlackLivesMatter was founded, what we all see is the continued struggle for BIPOC to be seen, heard and known in America.

Robins Thompson & Columbus, Inc. December 2011 FORT INDEPENDENCE CULTURAL RESOURCE SURVEY Report Prepared by Anthony W. Robins Thompson & Columbus, Inc. Fort Independence Park Neighborhood Association Kingsbridge Bronx, New York This project is funded in part by the Elizabeth and Robert Jeffe Preservation Fund for New York City, a grant program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. 2 2011 SURVEY STUDY AREA 3 INTRODUCTION In October of 2011, the Fort Independence Park Neighborhood Association (FIPNA) received a Jeffe Preservation Fund grant from the National Trust for Historic Preservation to undertake a survey of the Fort Independence area in Kingsbridge, the Bronx. The survey area covered eight blocks in the Fort Independence neighborhood (also known as Van Cortlandt Village) of the northwest Bronx, beginning two blocks south of Van Cortlandt Park and continuing three blocks further south, and starting at the western edge of the Jerome Park Reservoir along Sedgwick Avenue and extending two blocks west to Fort Independence Street. Streets in the survey area included Orloff Avenue, Van Cortlandt Avenue West, Cannon Place Sedgwick Avenue, Stevenson Place, West 238th Street, and Giles Place. The area is almost entirely residential, including large apartment complexes surrounded by two- and three-story brick and frame one- and two-family houses. While one large housing complex within the district – the Sholem Aleichem houses – has been found individually eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places, the remaining portion of the area has been under growing pressure, as single- family houses have given way to large new apartment blocks, as along Orloff Avenue and Fort Independence Street.

  • No. 250 Cabrini Boulevard
    Prepared by Anthony W. Robins for 250 Cabrini Boulevard, Inc. October 2011 1 Summary o. 250 Cabrini Boulevard – originally known as 250 Northern Avenue – occupies a prominent corner at West 187th Street in Washington Heights in upper Manhat­ Ntan. It was commissioned by Manhattan developer Samuel Minskoff, and built in 1936­37 to designs by the firm of Boak & Paris. Thanks to the opening of subway lines connecting the neighborhood to the lower city, Washington Heights developed in the early 20th century as a residential neighborhood of six­story apartment buildings. The apartment buildings of the 1920s tended to use typically eclectic designs modeled on historic European styles like the Tudor or the Italian Renaissance. In the 1930s, however, following trends in the larger city, the architects designing new buildings in the neighborhood – especially west of Broadway – turned to the newly modern styles today known as “Art Deco.” Sam Minskoff, founder of a major Manhattan real­estate dynasty, worked in the 1920s with architect Emery Roth, in whose office he likely met the young architects Russell Boak and Hyman Paris. After Boak and Paris left Roth’s office in 1927 to form their own partnership, Minskoff became one of their most frequent clients, a relationship continued by their successor firms into the 1960s. While Boak & Paris’s early work reflected the typical eclectic borrowings of the late 1920s, the architects quickly developed a very personal version of Art Deco. Their work from the 1930s – while clearly part of that architectural trend – is instantly recognizable and distinguishable from the mass of other comparable Art Deco apartment buildings.
