  • Old Buildings, New Views Recent Renovations Around Town Have Uncovered Views of Manhattan That Had Been Hiding in Plain Sight
    The New York Times: Real Estate May 7, 2021 Old Buildings, New Views Recent renovations around town have uncovered views of Manhattan that had been hiding in plain sight. By Caroline Biggs Impressions: 43,264,806 While New York City’s skyline is ever changing, some recent construction and additions to historic buildings across the city have revealed some formerly hidden, but spectacular, views to the world. These views range from close-up looks at architectural details that previously might have been visible only to a select few, to bird’s-eye views of towers and cupolas that until The New York Times: Real Estate May 7, 2021 recently could only be viewed from the street. They provide a novel way to see parts of Manhattan and shine a spotlight on design elements that have largely been hiding in plain sight. The structures include office buildings that have created new residential spaces, like the Woolworth Building in Lower Manhattan; historic buildings that have had towers added or converted to create luxury housing, like Steinway Hall on West 57th Street and the Waldorf Astoria New York; and brand-new condo towers that allow interesting new vantages of nearby landmarks. “Through the first decades of the 20th century, architects generally had the belief that the entire building should be designed, from sidewalk to summit,” said Carol Willis, an architectural historian and founder and director of the Skyscraper Museum. “Elaborate ornament was an integral part of both architectural design and the practice of building industry.” In the examples that we share with you below, some of this lofty ornamentation is now available for view thanks to new residential developments that have recently come to market.

  • 2021 NYYC Foundation Newsletter Issue #2
    FOUNDATION CORNER THE ILLUMINATING REVIVAL OF THE PALM CAFÉ by Jill Connors ONE OF THE MOST ENCHANTING ROOMS AT THE 44TH STREET CLUBHOUSE REGAINS ITS ORIGINAL LUSTER, AND THEN SOME. Bold design stands the test of time, and nowhere is this truer than at the 44th Street Clubhouse, which this year celebrates its 120th magnificent year. Splendid buildings require care and attention—to every plaster molding, carved-wood bracket, and cast-iron balustrade. The remarkable care that the New York Yacht Club has provided over the years is the reason this Warren & Wetmore-designed exemplar of Beaux Arts style has survived so grandly. As Commodore Christopher J. Culver said on the building’s anniversary in January, “It’s an honor for all of us to play a role in preserving this Clubhouse.” C2 Limited’s interior-design scheme for the renewed Palm Café includes casual seating near the original ban- quettes and a color scheme evocative of an early 1900s conservatory.

    Landmarks Preservation Commission April 18, 2006, Designation List 372 LP-2185 STEWART & COMPANY BUILDING, 402-404 Fifth Avenue (aka 2 West 37th Street), Manhattan. Built 1914; [Whitney] Warren & [Charles D.] Wetmore, architects; George A. Fuller Co., builders; New York Architectural Terra Cotta Company, terra cotta manufacturer. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 838, Lot. 48 On October 18, 2005, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of Stewart & Company building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 2). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provision of law. Three people spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of the property’s owners. In addition, the Commission received two letters in support of designation. Summary The Stewart & Company Building, designed by Warren and Wetmore, is one of the firm’s most unusual designs. The 1914 building reflects the unusual combination of diverse influences such as the 18th century British neo-Classical movement and the late 19th century Chicago School of Architecture style. The blue and white ornament of the terra cotta cladding is reminiscent of the 18th century neo-Classical movement in England, and specifically two of the most important proponents of the movement, Josiah Wedgwood and Robert Adam. Characteristic of the Chicago style are steel frame construction, masonry cladding that was usually terra cotta, large areas of glazing, usually featuring tripartite windows known as Chicago windows, and a tripartite vertical design. As the commercial center of Manhattan moved uptown so did the location of department stores.

  • D'annunzio at Fiume, Quaderni, Vol
    Pamela Ballinger JOHN HOPKINS UNIVERSITY REWRITING THE TEXT OF THE NATION: D'ANNUNZIO A T FIUME P. BALL!NGER, D'Annunzio at Fiume, Quaderni, vol. Xl, 1997, p. 117- 155 119 Introduction: In the house of the nation Perched in the hills above the resort town ofGardone Riviera on the northern Jtalian Lago di Garda stands the ornate and idiosyncratic villa known as the Vittoria/e. Visitors invariably express astonishment upon first viewing the villa, which almost overflowswith statues, objets d'art, Persian carpets, religious icons, and war relics. Countless mottos and inscriptions decorate its walls and niches; garish reds and blues dazzle the eyes in this otherwise dusky building into which little sunlight penetrates. The villa stands as a self-created monument to the · lifework of its former owner, the poet and war hero Gabriele D'Annunzio, and to his vision of a revitalized Italian nation. Crossing the Vittoria/e 's threshold, the visitor enters the symbolic universe of this poet who, having fa i led to realize as political reality his vision of a new Italian identity fo unded upon a proto-fascist military ethos, subsequently dedicated himself to memorializing his efforts by transforming his residence into a literal museum and tempie. Pausing at the gateway portico fo rmed by two triumphal arches, the visitor's gaze first meets a fo untain whose inscription reveals D' Annunzio's aim: "Dentro da questa cerchia triplice di mura, ove tradotto e già in pietre vive quel libro religioso ch'io mi pensai preposto ai riti della Patria e dai vincitori latini chiamato Vittoria/e "(Mazza 1987: 22).

  • Grand Central Transcript
    Page 1 Grand Central Transcript Narrator: On the morning of January 8, 1902, the air around Grand Central Station was choked with smoke, cinders, and noxious fumes. Hundreds of trains converged at the station - - a deluge of steel and steam far too great for the outdated train yard to handle. For decades New Yorkers had complained about the horrid conditions at Grand Central. But a shocking tragedy that January day would change everything. Steam locomotives would be banished from the city and the crowded train yard condemned. A new Grand Central would arise -- a miracle of design and engineering. Paul Goldberger, Writer: Grand Central is both grand and part of everyday life; incredibly practical, incredibly functional, and yet overpoweringly exciting at the same time. Grand Central is so much more than just a train station. In many ways, it's the heart of New York. I got to know Grand Central really well when I was in college and would take the train down from New Haven all the time. And you felt as if you were arriving in the place. This was it. If you had any doubt when you got off the train and walked into that incredible concourse, you knew it was the center of the world, and you knew this was the place you wanted to go to. It encourages movement. And yet has a sort of stately dignity at the same time. It's sublime. It reminds you of the greatness of human ambition. When we build so much beyond what we have to, and we do it not to glorify a king, say, as in a palace -- something like that -- but to glorify everybody.

  • Psaudio Copper
    Issue 109 APRIL 20TH, 2020 This issue’s cover: Judy Garland (1922 – 1969). One of the most iconic actresses, recording artists and performers of all time. Though haunted by personal struggles, she attained greatness that few ever achieved. Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue. Like everyone else, we at Copper have been impacted by the coronavirus, whether by disruption in our work and home lives to financial impact, stress, anxiety and writer’s block. And yes, one of us contracted the virus – thankfully, he’s doing OK. So, over the next few issues you might see some changes – temporary absence of some writers, a different balance of articles and other differences from the usual. We trust you’ll understand, and we look forward to when these pages, and our lives, reach a new equilibrium. It is with great sadness that we note the passing of Stereophile deputy editor Art Dudley. He was one of the finest men ever to grace the audio industry. My tribute to him is in these pages. Also in this issue: Rich Isaacs begins a series on Italian progressive rock with a look at the great PFM (Premiata Forneria Marconi). Ken Sander takes us on a wild rock and roll ride with Eric Burdon and War. Professor Larry Schenbeck continues his series on immersive sound. WL Woodward gets jazzed about bass. John Seetoo concludes his series on legendary Yellow Magic Orchestra/film composer/techno-pop pioneer Ryuichi Sakamoto. In a special report we ask audio companies how they’re responding to the COVID-19 crisis.
