  • Nick Sunday Papers Accession Number: 2017.014
    Collection: Nick Sunday Papers Accession Number: 2017.014 Finding Aid Date Range: 1934-2017 Bulk Date: 1993-2003 Creator: Nick Sunday Number and type of containers: 21 letter-sized flip-top boxes Storage Location: PCHS Library and Archives Aid Created By: Ursula Romero (volunteer) Biographical Information: Nick Sunday was born in Paterson, New Jersey in 1947. He spent much of his life studying art, and in the 1970s began creating Xerox art under the name Dark Dusting. In addition, Sunday collaborated with his wife, Joy Sikorski, on several children’s books including the Paterson-inspired Squeaky Chalk, published in 2000. He continued to study and create art throughout his life, attending SUNY Albany in 1974, Skidmore College in 1978, and graduating from Hampshire College’s school of communications and computer science in 1984. Throughout his life, he maintained an interest in art and graphic design, occasionally offering classes on various art techniques to local children. Nick Sunday was an independent historian and researcher whose focus was primarily on the history of Paterson and its surrounding areas. To that end, he established the Jennie Tuttle Hobart Museum in 1993, the name of which he later attempted to change to The Paterson Museum, and which was eventually disbanded in 1995. In 2000, he established the Alexander Hamilton National Memorial. He created frequent newsletters pertaining to Paterson history and culture throughout the mid-1990s and early 2000s, titled Mary Ellen and Salamander, and often appeared in local newspapers discussing the history of the city. One of Sunday’s primary interests was the city plan for Paterson which was originally drawn by Pierre Charles L’Enfant.

  • Gateway National Recreation Area Headquarters Staten Island, New York June 2003 CLIMATE FRIENDLY PARKS FRAMEWORK for LOCAL ACTION PLANNING
    Gateway National Recreation Area Headquarters Staten Island, New York June 2003 CLIMATE FRIENDLY PARKS FRAMEWORK FOR LOCAL ACTION PLANNING Produced by the NPS Environmental Leadership Program, with technical assistance from EPA’s Global Change Information Branch and NPS’s Natural Resources Stewardship and Science Division. This Document Reports the Accomplishments of Gateway National Recreation Area (NRA) staff who participated in NPS’s first Climate Friendly Parks Workshop in June 2003. Gateway staff developed the following Framework for Local Action Planning, which outlines park-wide goals and strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The approaches provided in the Framework are intended to serve as an example for each of Gateway NRA’s three management units when they devise unit-specific strategies for meeting park-wide goals. The Framework proposes reducing greenhouse gases through increased awareness about climate change and management of transportation, buildings and facilities, grounds and lands, and waste. The Challenge of Climate Change CLIMATE CHANGE PRESENTS SIGNIFICANT RISKS AND CHALLENGES TO THE NATIONAL warmer temperatures, along with increases in sea level that may Parks System.
