In 1947 and 1948, The New York Sun ran a Pulitzer Prize-winning exposé of waterfront corruption and violence. Yet the problem persisted, culminating in two gangland executions near the entrance to Pier 3. Budd Schulberg, the journalist, screenwriter and novelist, was inspired by The New York Sun articles to write a long feature on the subject for The Saturday Evening Post. It provided the basis for his script of the Oscar-winning movie, On the Waterfront (1954), which was filmed on location in Hoboken.) p.5 ‘During its… fashion-world celebrity’. (Anna Wolkoff’s shop opened in June 1935 and closed in January 1939. Even after its closure, she retained her status as a minor celebrity.

  • Architectural Tour of Exhibition Road and 'Albertopolis'
    ARCHITECTURAL TOUR OF EXHIBITION ROAD AND ‘ALBERTOPOLIS’ The area around Exhibition Road and the Albert Hall in Kensington is dominated by some of London’s most striking 19th- and 20th-century public buildings. This short walking tour is intended as an introduction to them. Originally this was an area of fields and market gardens flanking Hyde Park. In 1851, however, the Great Exhibition took place in the Crystal Palace on the edge of the park. It was a phenomenal success and in the late 1850s Exhibition Road was created in commemoration of the event. Other international exhibitions took place in 1862 and 1886 and although almost all the exhibition buildings have now vanished, the institutions that replaced them remain. Queen Victoria’s husband, Prince Albert, had a vision of an area devoted to the arts and sciences. ‘Albertopolis’, as it was dubbed, is evident today in the unique collection of colleges and museums in South Kensington. Begin at Exhibition Road entrance of the V&A: Spiral Building, V&A, Daniel Libeskind, 1996- The tour begins at the Exhibition Road entrance to the V&A, dominated now by a screen erected by Aston Webb in 1909 to mask the original boiler house yard beyond. Note the damage to the stonework, caused by a bomb during the Second World War and left as a memorial. Turn right to walk north up Exhibition Road, 50 yards on your right is the: Henry Cole Wing, V&A, Henry Scott with Henry Cole and Richard Redgrave, 1868-73 Henry Cole was the first director of the South Kensington Museum (now the V&A).
