4.4 Cultural Resources
MILLBRAE STATION AREA SPECIFIC PLAN UPDATE AND TRANSIT-ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT #1 AND #2 DRAFT EIR CITY OF MILLBRAE CULTURAL RESOURCES 4.4 CULTURAL RESOURCES This chapter describes existing cultural resources in the Specific Plan Area and evaluates the potential cultural resource impacts associated with future development that could occur by adopting and implementing the proposed Specific Plan Update, and approval and development of the proposed Transit-Oriented Developments (TOD) #1 and #2 (together referred to as the “proposed Project”). Cultural resources include historically and architecturally significant resources, as well as archaeological and paleontological resources. The analysis in this chapter is based on a cultural resources report prepared by Tom Origer & Associates (TOA) on September 22, 2014. The cultural resources report is included in this Draft EIR as Appendix C, Cultural Resources Data. 4.4.1 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING 4.4.1.1 REGULATORY FRAMEWORK This section describes the policies and regulations that apply to cultural resources in the Specific Plan Area, and specifically on the TOD #1 and TOD #2 project sites. Federal Regulations National Historic Preservation Act The National Register of Historic Places (National Register) established by the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) of 1966, as amended, recognizes properties that are significant at local, State, and national levels. Officially designated historical resources include districts, sites, buildings, structures, and objects. Properties that are eligible for listing in the National Register are afforded the same protection given to properties that are listed in the National Register. For a property to be eligible for listing in the National Register, it must be significant in American history, architecture, archaeology, engineering, or culture, and must retain integrity in terms of location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. -

Ophir Farm History R5
Ophir Farm and Manhattanville College Dear Visitor: Dating back to the 17th century, the story of Ophir Farm combines just the right mix of historical truth and local legend, and serves as a worthy heritage for Manhattanville College, now on the same site. This booklet provides a glimpse into the history, landscaping and architecture of both and is designed to supplement your walking tour with a chronological background that will make the buildings and scenery come alive. The Ophir Farm estate was once one of the nation’s most prominent model farms, an art form and hobby pursued by affluent farmers in the 1800's. Today, it includes a rich sampling from artisans who have worked on New York City’s Central Park, the White House, the Capitol, the campuses of Harvard and Columbia, St. Patrick's Cathedral and Lincoln Center. Our guide has been created, in part, to celebrate and preserve these treasures. Gayl Braisted compiled many of the sources in this history for her Masters thesis at Manhattanville. She was extremely generous with her time and allowed portions of her thesis to be printed herein. For more information about how you can help preserve Ophir Farm, please write to me at Manhattanville College, 2900 Purchase Street, Purchase, NY 10577 or call 914-323-5288. Sincerely, Anne Gold Community Relations Director Index Chronology 1695: Harrison’s Purchase, Arrival of Haviland Family 3 1772: Purchase Street 3 1864: The Holladays 3 1883-1886: John Roach, Arrival of the Reids 5 1887: Design by Frederick Olmsted 6 1888: Fire at Ophir Farm -

An Examination of the Marketing of a Floundering Sport: The Case of Powerboat Racing Sam Fullerton Eastern Michigan University Potchefstroom Business School, North-West University (South Africa) ABSTRACT A sample of 308 attendees at an APBA sanctioned powerboat race in July of 2015 provided insight regarding a number of key considerations germane to the decision to attend the race. Race organizers were seeking ways to reinvigorate interest in what they see as a floundering – if not sinking – sport. A self-administered survey was distributed at the race with those completing it having a chance to win a souvenir shirt from the races. -
