  • Modernism in Bartholomew County, Indiana, from 1942
    NPS Form 10-900 USDI/NPS NRHP Registration Form (Rev. 8-86) OMB No. 1024-0018 MODERNISM IN BARTHOLOMEW COUNTY, INDIANA, FROM 1942 Page 1 United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Registration Form E. STATEMENT OF HISTORIC CONTEXTS INTRODUCTION This National Historic Landmark Theme Study, entitled “Modernism in Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Design and Art in Bartholomew County, Indiana from 1942,” is a revision of an earlier study, “Modernism in Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Design and Art in Bartholomew County, Indiana, 1942-1999.” The initial documentation was completed in 1999 and endorsed by the Landmarks Committee at its April 2000 meeting. It led to the designation of six Bartholomew County buildings as National Historic Landmarks in 2000 and 2001 First Christian Church (Eliel Saarinen, 1942; NHL, 2001), the Irwin Union Bank and Trust (Eero Saarinen, 1954; NHL, 2000), the Miller House (Eero Saarinen, 1955; NHL, 2000), the Mabel McDowell School (John Carl Warnecke, 1960; NHL, 2001), North Christian Church (Eero Saarinen, 1964; NHL, 2000) and First Baptist Church (Harry Weese, 1965; NHL, 2000). No fewer than ninety-five other built works of architecture or landscape architecture by major American architects in Columbus and greater Bartholomew County were included in the study, plus many renovations and an extensive number of unbuilt projects. In 2007, a request to lengthen the period of significance for the theme study as it specifically relates to the registration requirements for properties, from 1965 to 1973, was accepted by the NHL program and the original study was revised to define a more natural cut-off date with regard to both Modern design trends and the pace of Bartholomew County’s cycles of new construction.

    Chapter 1 Introduction: A Site, Questions… Ruins provide the incentive for restoration…There has to be an interim… of death or rejection before there can be renewal and reform. The old order has to die before there can be a born-again landscape. John Brinckerhoff Jackson (Jackson 1980,102) In the summer 2001, while exploring thesis possibilities, the author made two impor- tant discoveries. The first related to the Society for Industrial Archeology (SIA). Although founded in Washington, DC, in 1971, it took 30 years before the Society returned to hold an annual conference in the nation’s capital. At the time, the Society recognized that few considered Washington a prime candidate for the exploration of industrial heritage. Yet while Washington’s heritage never duplicated that of cities such as Pittsburgh and Buffalo, the capital had evolved its own industrial heritage, one notable example of which was the Washington Aqueduct and its McMillan Reservoir Sand Filtration Plant, the largest slow sand filtration system built in the United States (SIA 2001). A second discovery came from an old issue of Landscape Architecture magazine. In late 1992, the magazine conducted a small informal work- shop (LA Forum) to explore revival of the McMillan plant site that had been closed to the public since World War II and abandoned since the late 1980s. Workshop par- 1.2 Site from First Street ticipants visited not only a 25-acre industrial ruin but also the remnants of a park designed and installed atop it by Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr. as an offshoot of the 1902 McMillan Plan for the capital’s park system.

  • Altered States: the American Psychedelic Aesthetic
    ALTERED STATES: THE AMERICAN PSYCHEDELIC AESTHETIC A Dissertation Presented by Lana Cook to The Department of English in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the field of English Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts April, 2014 1 © Copyright by Lana Cook All Rights Reserved 2 ALTERED STATES: THE AMERICAN PSYCHEDELIC AESTHETIC by Lana Cook ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the College of Social Sciences and Humanities of Northeastern University, April, 2014 3 ABSTRACT This dissertation traces the development of the American psychedelic aesthetic alongside mid-twentieth century American aesthetic practices and postmodern philosophies. Psychedelic aesthetics are the varied creative practices used to represent altered states of consciousness and perception achieved via psychedelic drug use. Thematically, these works are concerned with transcendental states of subjectivity, psychic evolution of humankind, awakenings of global consciousness, and the perceptual and affective nature of reality in relation to social constructions of the self. Formally, these works strategically blend realist and fantastic languages, invent new language, experimental typography and visual form, disrupt Western narrative conventions of space, time, and causality, mix genres and combine disparate aesthetic and cultural traditions such as romanticism, surrealism, the medieval, magical realism, science fiction, documentary, and scientific reportage. This project attends to early exemplars of the psychedelic aesthetic, as in the case of Aldous Huxley’s early landmark text The Doors of Perception (1954), forgotten pioneers such as Jane Dunlap’s Exploring Inner Space (1961), Constance Newland’s My Self and I (1962), and Storm de Hirsch’s Peyote Queen (1965), cult classics such as Tom Wolfe’s The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test (1968), and ends with the psychedelic aesthetics’ popularization in films like Roger Corman’s The Trip (1967).

  • November 13, 2006 the Hon. Linda W. Cropp Chair District of Columbia City Council John A. Wilson Building 1350 Pennsylvania Aven
    November 13, 2006 The Hon. Linda W. Cropp Chair District of Columbia City Council John A. Wilson Building 1350 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, D.C. 20004 Dear Chair Cropp, On behalf of the National Association for Olmsted Parks (NAOP), I am writing to express our concern over the proposed transfer of the historic 25-acre McMillan Reservoir Sand Filtration Site to the National Capital Revitalization Corporation for commercial development. The creation of McMillan Park in 1905 represented significant 20 th century advancement in the implementation of the Senate Park Commission’s plan, also known as the McMillan Plan of 1901-1902. This effort revived L’Enfant’s concept of the National Mall, re-validated Olmsted Sr.’s design for the U.S. Capitol Grounds, and called for an “Emerald Necklace” of parks, open space and recreation facilities encircling the city. With commanding views of the U.S. Capitol and the Washington Monument, McMillan Park satisfied two critical needs: safe water and open space for passive and active recreation. The site combined a massive civic infrastructure project — the sand filtration complex — with a public park and by doing so distinguished the District of Columbia as a leader in the City Beautiful planning movement, which supported beautification and monumental grandeur in cities to create harmonious social conditions to improve the lives of the city’s poor. The site’s design and construction was the collaboration of pre-eminent 20 th century civil engineers, urban planners, artists and architects including Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. ― the principal planner and sole landscape architect of this unusual and unique site.

I will, first, establish that the original pastoral tradition can be related to the existence of psychedelic plants, and that the use of such plants has inspired a deeper communion with various levels of the natural world.
