  • Strategic Policy Statement 2014 Melinda Katz
    THE OFFICE OF THE QUEENS BOROUGH PRESIDENT Strategic Policy Statement 2014 Melinda Katz Queens Borough President The Borough of Queens is home to more than 2.3 million residents, representing more than 120 countries and speaking more than 135 languages1. The seamless knit that ties these distinct cultures and transforms them into shared communities is what defines the character of Queens. The Borough’s diverse population continues to steadily grow. Foreign-born residents now represent 48% of the Borough’s population2. Traditional immigrant gateways like Sunnyside, Woodside, Jackson Heights, Elmhurst, Corona, and Flushing are now communities with the highest foreign-born population in the entire city3. Immigrant and Intercultural Services The immigrant population remains largely underserved. This is primarily due to linguistic and cultural barriers. Residents with limited English proficiency now represent 28% of the Borough4, indicating a need for a wide range of social service support and language access to City services. All services should be available in multiple languages, and outreach should be improved so that culturally sensitive programming can be made available. The Borough President is actively working with the Queens General Assembly, a working group organized by the Office of the Queens Borough President, to address many of these issues. Cultural Queens is amidst a cultural transformation. The Borough is home to some of the most iconic buildings and structures in the world, including the globally recognized Unisphere and New York State Pavilion. Areas like Astoria and Long Island City are establishing themselves as major cultural hubs. In early 2014, the New York City Council designated the area surrounding Kaufman Astoria Studios as the city’s first arts district through a City Council Proclamation The areas unique mix of adaptively reused residential, commercial, and manufacturing buildings serve as a catalyst for growth in culture and the arts.

  • Leading the Movement: Interviews With
    LEADING THE MOVEMENT: INTERVIEWS WITH PRESERVATIONIST LEADERS IN NEW YORK'S CIVIC SECTOR The Reminiscences of Jeffrey Kroessler © 2012 New York Preservation Archive Project PREFACE The following oral history is the result of a recorded interview with Jeffrey Kroessler conducted by Interviewer Sarah Sher on March 9, 2012. This interview is part of the Leading the Movement:Interviews with Preservationist Leaders in New York's Civic Sector oral history project. The reader is asked to bear in mind that s/he is reading a verbatim transcript of the spoken word, rather than written prose. The views expressed in this oral history interview do not necessarily reflect the views of the New York Preservation Archive Project. Jeffrey Koessler is a historian and preservation advocate in New York City. He discusses the unique challenges of historical preservation in Queens, detailing many political struggles with the Borough government and the Landmarks Preservation Commission. He was involved in the efforts to preserve the Terra-Cotta Company Office, one of the first landmark designations in Queens, and to landmark Sunnyside Gardens. Sunnyside Gardens’ landmarking battle was extensive, and he discusses many of the challenges to receiving the landmark designation. He also discusses the how historical preservation has changed and evolved over the years and the challenges in historical preservation moving forward, in Queens and New York City. Dr. Jeffrey A. Kroessler, historian and preservationist, is the founder and president of the Queensborough Preservation League and a leading preservation activist in Queens.

  • Press Release
    Laura Jasek: Have a Heart 9/22/18 – 10/27/18 Grant Wahlquist Gallery is thrilled to present “Have a Heart,” the first solo exhibition by Laura Jasek. The show will run from September 22 through October 27, 2018. The gallery will host a talk with the artist on Saturday, September 22 at 4 pm, with an opening reception following from 5 – 7 pm. Jasek’s work analyzes how specific works of art and culture embody social norms. She appropriates, quotes, crops, and re-makes her subjects, juxtaposing them with other images documenting their historical reception and contemporary status in order to expose how her subjects reveal or attempt to conceal their complicity in systems of control and exploitation. Her genealogical approach to the life (and occasional death) of artworks combines deep research, meticulous technique, and moments of humor and tenderness, resulting in exquisite drawings and prints whose critical aims are matched by their aesthetic charge. Jasek has recently been particularly focused on the life and work of Frederick MacMonnies, the leading American Beaux-Arts sculptor at the turn of the twentieth century. Her interest in MacMonnies stems from an initial encounter with a reproduction of his work Civic Virtue Triumphant Over Unrighteousness, a 17-foot tall marble sculpture depicting civic virtue as a serene male nude standing above two thrashing semi-nude sirens representing vice and corruption. Unveiled in front of New York City Hall in 1922—two years after women gained the right to vote—Civic Virtue’s apparent misogyny proved immediately controversial, and Fiorello La Guardia had it moved to Queens Borough Hall in 1941.
