    A Seed is Sown 1884-1900 (1) Before the GAA From the earliest times, the people of Ireland, as of other countries throughout the known world, played ball games'. Games played with a ball and stick can be traced back to pre-Christian times in Greece, Egypt and other countries. In Irish legend, there is a reference to a hurling game as early as the second century B.C., while the Brehon laws of the preChristian era contained a number of provisions relating to hurling. In the Tales of the Red Branch, which cover the period around the time of the birth of Christ, one of the best-known stories is that of the young Setanta, who on his way from his home in Cooley in County Louth to the palace of his uncle, King Conor Mac Nessa, at Eamhain Macha in Armagh, practised with a bronze hurley and a silver ball. On arrival at the palace, he joined the one hundred and fifty boys of noble blood who were being trained there and outhurled them all single-handed. He got his name, Cuchulainn, when he killed the great hound of Culann, which guarded the palace, by driving his hurling ball through the hound's open mouth. From the time of Cuchulainn right up to the end of the eighteenth century hurling flourished throughout the country in spite of attempts made through the Statutes of Kilkenny (1367), the Statute of Galway (1527) and the Sunday Observance Act (1695) to suppress it. Particularly in Munster and some counties of Leinster, it remained strong in the first half of the nineteenth century.

Over the course of the last year, our agencies have worked closely with Community Boards 6 and 7, local elected offi cials, surrounding businesses and property owners, New York City Transit, Metro-North Railroad, local institutions and residents to generate a concept for the Plaza and adjacent streets that will create an iconic public space in the Bronx, while easing traffi c congestion, supporting transit use and fostering neighborhood economic development.

    Platform Development Opportunities in the Bronx

    Platform Development Opportunities in The Bronx The Office of Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. February 2016 In his 2015 “State of the Borough” address, Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. announced that his office would conduct a preliminary study of the feasibility of building decks over three railyards operated by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA)—149th Street in Mott Haven, the Concourse Yard adjacent to Lehman College, and the 1 train yards connecting Riverdale and Kingsbridge. “But to truly bring transformative housing development to The Bronx, we have to examine not just available space, but space that does not even technically exist, “said Borough President Diaz of his proposal in his speech. “We will examine possible costs and potential density, and will take the first step towards creating new space as a key component of our city's housing and economic development future.” As each of those yards was examined for future development, one location outshone the rest, for a variety of reasons. 1 149th STREET The MTA yard at East 149th Street and the Grand Concourse has long been seen as offering tremendous opportunity for potential development. The site is located at one of the busiest transportation hubs in the city, and features neighboring attractions such as the Hostos Community College, Lincoln Hospital, the future Bronx GPO project and Cardinal Hayes High School. A little further away to the north sits the borough’s Civic Center district as well as Yankee Stadium. In 1955, then-Bronx Borough President James J. Lyons called for the site to be decked over and developed as part of a 78-acre development plan in the South Bronx.
