  • 5 IMPLEMENTATION Implementation of the Hudson River Valley Greenway Trail Is an Ongoing Process
    5 IMPLEMENTATION Implementation of the Hudson River Valley Greenway Trail is an ongoing process. The existing hiking, biking and water trail routes can continue to be improved and promoted, while the multi-use path will require a significant level of new planning, design and capital investment. In the past 25 years, the Greenway has developed grass-roots and local government support for these efforts, providing an excellent foundation for the next generation of the trail system. The following actions are recommended for the ongoing success of the HRVG: 1. Continue promoting the Water Trail: this is the most direct connection to the river, and can be marketed without significant capital improvements to promote the whole Greenway. 2. Upgrade the existing Hiking Trails: The continuous hiking trail can be achieved with alignments closer to the river - and many of these key connections are already in progress. With the new TZ bridge path and the Walkway over the Hudson, a loop hiking trail can connect both sides of the river in the lower half of the valley. 3. Improve the on-road Bike Routes: the currently signed NYS Bike Route 9 is a challenging route and is limited to experienced cyclists. Improving signage, paved shoulders, bike lanes, bike parking and Amtrak access will all support increased use along the route. Both the PTNY and West Side routes are not currently designated, but they can be improved to create on-road routes on both sides of the river. 4. Develop the continuous Hudson River Valley Greenway Trail trunk line: the efforts of the past decades have led to significant new potential to create a continuous multi-use path the length of the Hudson River Valley from Manhattan to the Adirondacks.

  • Inscape Cultural Study Society
    INSCAPE CULTURAL STUDY SOCIETY THE HUDSON RIVER OF INVENTION, VALLEY OF HOPE THURSDAY 9 TO MONDAY 20 OCTOBER 2014 NICHOLAS FRIEND Along the 315 mile length of the Hudson River which flows through eastern New York State from the Adirondacks to the Statue of Liberty, much that we value in American culture was conceived: New York City began, as New Amsterdam, on the Hudson. American landscape painting was born on the Hudson, as was the landscape conservation movement. The Shakers led by Ann Lee emigrated from England to thrive at New Lebanon, on the Hudson. The first commercially successful paddle steamboat line occurred not on the Mississippi, but on the Hudson, and America’s first regularly scheduled rail service connected New York City with Albany, the state capital at the mouth of the Hudson. Churchill first met Roosevelt at FDR’s country house at Hyde Park on the Hudson. It is not too much to say that the American dream itself was created and sustained on the Hudson. We familiarise ourselves with an approximately 80-mile long area, the heart of the valley where New Yorkers and others seeking refreshment and solace from concrete jungles have flocked since the Industrial Revolution. When viewed from the water, the Manhattan skyscrapers in their majestic profusion echo the Palisades, the dramatic natural cliffs rising vertically from the water along the west side of the lower Hudson River. Spanning the time between their formation 200 million years ago and the topping on May 2013 of America’s tallest building, One World Trade Center, is a story of an extraordinary expansion and respect for life along the shores of the Hudson, an area of such valued natural beauty it is called America’s Rhineland.

  • Appendices Section
    APPENDIX 1. A Selection of Biodiversity Conservation Agencies & Programs A variety of state agencies and programs, in addition to the NY Natural Heritage Program, partner with OPRHP on biodiversity conservation and planning. This appendix also describes a variety of statewide and regional biodiversity conservation efforts that complement OPRHP’s work. NYS BIODIVERSITY RESEARCH INSTITUTE The New York State Biodiversity Research Institute is a state-chartered organization based in the New York State Museum who promotes the understanding and conservation of New York’s biological diversity. They administer a broad range of research, education, and information transfer programs, and oversee a competitive grants program for projects that further biodiversity stewardship and research. In 1996, the Biodiversity Research Institute approved funding for the Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation to undertake an ambitious inventory of its lands for rare species, rare natural communities, and the state’s best examples of common communities. The majority of inventory in state parks occurred over a five-year period, beginning in 1998 and concluding in the spring of 2003. Funding was also approved for a sixth year, which included all newly acquired state parks and several state parks that required additional attention beyond the initial inventory. Telephone: (518) 486-4845 Website: www.nysm.nysed.gov/bri/ NYS DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION The Department of Environmental Conservation’s (DEC) biodiversity conservation efforts are handled by a variety of offices with the department. Of particular note for this project are the NY Natural Heritage Program, Endangered Species Unit, and Nongame Unit (all of which are in the Division of Fish, Wildlife, & Marine Resources), and the Division of Lands & Forests.

  • Thomas Cole National Historic Site Cedar Grove Catskill, NY Archives
    Thomas Cole National Historic Site Cedar Grove Catskill, NY Archives Finding Aid Historical Note: This collection documents both the Cole family and their home, Cedar Grove. Thomas Cole, 1801-1848, is considered one of the founders of American landscape painting and of the Hudson River School of Painting. There are several biographical and critical studies of his life and work available in print and on various web sites. The family members represented in this collection include his spouse Maria Bartow Cole, 1813-1884 and his children Theodore, Mary, Emily, Thomas II, grand-children (Theodore’s children with Eugenia Casey) Florence Haswell, Mary Emily and Thomas III. Thomas Cole, III’s daughter, Edith Cole Hill Silberstein was the last owner of Cedar Grove and she is prominent in these archives. Sarah Cole, Thomas Cole’s sister was also a painter and there is some small documentation of her life in this collection. The Thomson family, particularly, Thomas Thomson and John A. Thomson were the original owners of Cedar Grove and prominent in the community of Catskill, NY and their lives are partly documented in these papers. The members of the Cole family who seemed to have played major parts in the history of Cedar Grove after Thomas Cole’s death and who are well-documented in the collection include Maria Bartow Cole, Theodore Cole, Florence Cole Vincent and Rev. Thomas Cole II. Thomas Cole had two studios, the Old and New Studio, and the history of these two buildings is documented with many photographs of the buildings at various time in their histories, including the use of the Old Studio as an antique shop.

  • 2007 Annual Report
    07 2007 ANNUAL REPORT NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR THE HUMANITIES NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR THE HUMANITIES 3 CHAIRMAN’S LETTER The President The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Mr. President: It is my privilege to present to you the 2007 annual report of the National Endowment for the Humanities. In September 2007, NEH’s We the People program celebrated its fifth anniversary. This year We the People continued to strengthen the teaching, study, and understanding of American history and culture through grants supporting hundreds of projects, including traveling library exhibitions on great Americans such as Benjamin Franklin; documentary films; summer workshops for school- teachers; and our annual We the People Bookshelf program for libraries. In 2007 NEH also launched the pilot phase of an exciting new We the People initiative called “Picturing America,” which seeks to put some of our nation’s artistic masterpieces and iconic images in our schools, where they will help students trace our national story and learn about America’s principles. We the People is also ensuring that the “first draft” of our history is widely available. In March, we joined our partners at the Library of Congress to announce the debut of the “Chronicling America: Historic American Newspapers” website, featuring more than 226,000 pages of public domain newspapers from six states and the District of Columbia published between 1900 and 1910. Ultimately, the “Chronicling America” website will offer all Americans a free, searchable database of some thirty million pages of historic U.S. newspapers. As NEH worked this year to promote and preserve America’s cultural heritage, we also expanded our efforts to collaborate and exchange new ideas in the humanities with our peers in other nations.
