  • 154 WEST 14Th STREET BUILDING, 154-162 West 14Th Street (Aka 51-59 Seventh Avenue), Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission June 28, 2011, Designation List 444 LP-2419 154 WEST 14th STREET BUILDING, 154-162 West 14th Street (aka 51-59 Seventh Avenue), Manhattan. Built 1912-13; Herman Lee Meader, architect; New York Architectural Terra Cotta Co., terra cotta. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 609, Lot 7. On June 22, 2010, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the 154 West 14th Street Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 5). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Three people spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of New York Assemblymember Deborah J. Glick, the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation, and the Historic Districts Council. Summary The 154 West 14th Street Building (1912-13), a 12-story speculative loft structure constructed for lawyer-banker and real estate developer Leslie R. Palmer, was the first completed New York City design by architect Herman Lee Meader, with whom Palmer collaborated on five projects. The building’s location at the prominent intersection of 14th Street and Seventh Avenue anticipated the southward extension of Seventh Avenue and its new subway line, and benefitted from its proximity and direct access to the Holland Tunnel and west side freight terminals. Arranged in a tripartite base-shaft-capital composition with large window areas, it is a striking and unusual example of a large loft building partly clad in terra cotta – on the three-story base, on the spandrels between the white-brick piers of the midsection, and on the upper portion.

  • 14Th Street Corridor Traffic Analysis Overview Introduction in Late
    February 22, 2018 14th Street Corridor Traffic Analysis Overview Introduction In late October 2012, Hurricane Sandy devastated New York City and left 43 New Yorkers dead, 2 million people without power, flooding in 17% of the city affecting some 90,000 buildings, and $19 billion in damages to the City alone. The effects of the extensive damage to the subway system serve as a reminder of Sandy’s huge impact. All six of the MTA-NYCT’s East River subway tunnels were inundated with storm water surges, corroding the various mechanical, electrical and communications components with saltwater. The 92-year-old tubes of the Canarsie Tunnel, connecting Brooklyn and Manhattan via the L Line, were flooded with seven million gallons of salt water. While the tubes were drained and service was restored just 10 days after the storm, it was clear that a full reconstruction of the tunnel was required. Service Planning for the Canarsie Tube Closure Starting in April 2019, the 15-month closure of the L train’s Canarsie Tunnel will directly affect 275,000 daily customers. While MTA New York City Transit (NYCT) and the New York City Department of Transportation (DOT) have been working together to provide alternatives and new travel options, it is difficult to overstate the significant disruption and inconvenience being brought to the lives of hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers. With most L commuters moving to other subways, even those New Yorkers who do not ride the L will see their commutes affected by the influx of L riders on their subway lines.

  • Prospect Park Primary Source Packet
    PROSPECT PARK PRIMARY SOURCE PACKET Student Name Prospect Park Primary Source Packet INTRODUCTORY READING "Timeline." Park History. Prospect Park Alliance, Web. 28 Jan 2014. ADAPTATION In 1834, the City of Brooklyn was chartered, and during the next 30 years it became the third largest city in the country, following only New York (Manhattan) and Philadelphia. Thousands of European immigrants settled in the growing city and sprawling farms gave way to homes. At the same time public parks were gaining popularity in America. Beginning in 1858, the design team of Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux transformed more than 800 acres of jagged rock into Central Park in Manhattan. It was the first landscaped public park in the United States. Soon after a movement grew in Brooklyn for a park of its own. Leading the effort was James Stranahan, a businessman and civic leader. In the early 1860s, Stranahan argued that a park in Brooklyn "would become a favorite resort for all classes of our community, enabling thousands to enjoy pure air, with healthful exercise, at all seasons of the year…." Calvert Vaux sketched Prospect Park’s present layout for Stranahan. Vaux convinced Olmsted to join the effort, and construction of the park began on July 1, 1866 under their supervision. Olmsted and Vaux’s plan included rolling green meadows, carriage drives with scenic lookouts, waterfalls, springs and a forest. Organized sports gained popularity throughout the first half of the 1900s and the Park continued to host parades and celebrations that drew huge crowds. Parks Commissioner Robert Moses opened the zoo, bandshell and several playgrounds in the 1930s.
