    My Favorite World #37 Eagle-eyed readers of this here bloggy pontificatory nonsense are well aware of Your Narrator’s affection for professional tennis. It’s what makes the two weeks that wrap around Labor Day my favorite sporty time of the year. Yep, it’s US Open time. It’s not just that your guide has attended the US Open – once at the venerable Forest Hills Club, where he had the great fortune to have the great Pancho Gonzales take a leak in the urinal next to his, and where the legendary Alan King deigned to sign his player program and flick a cigar ash in his, Your Narrator’s, general direction. “Have fun kid, don’t get drunk.” Such a sweet man. Nah, I’m kidding. He was an arrogant asshole. But he did sign my program. Later, at the grandly named US Open Tennis Center out in Flushing Meadows, Young Narrator watched Laver and Connors and Rosewall and Stan Smith and some perky little blond named Chrissie playing her first big match against Billie Jean, &c.

  • C 130155 Ppq
    CITY PLANNING COMMISSION May 22, 2013/Calendar No. 11 C 130155 PPQ IN THE MATTER OF an application submitted by the NYC Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) and the USTA National Tennis Center Inc., pursuant to Section 197-c of the New York City Charter, for the disposition of a lease of city-owned property to the USTA National Tennis Center Inc. located northerly of United Nations Avenue North, between Meridian Road and Path of Americas (Block 2018, p/o Lot 1) within Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, Community Districts 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, Borough of Queens . This application for the disposition of 0.68 acres of city-owned property was filed by the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) and the United States Tennis Association National Tennis Center Inc. (USTA) on December 31, 2012 to facilitate the relocation and enlargement of the Grandstand Stadium, increase and improve the pedestrian circulation areas, and improve the overall visitor experience at the National Tennis Center.

  • Executive Summary
    Executive Summary A. PROJECT IDENTIFICATION The City of New York Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR), in coordination with USTA National Tennis Center, Incorporated (USTA)1, is seeking a number of discretionary actions in connection with proposed improvements and an expansion to the facilities at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center (NTC), located in Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens (see Figure S-1). These improvements collectively are known as the NTC Strategic Vision (the proposed project). The NTC is located on a portion of Queens Block 2018, Lot 1, on park land leased by DPR to USTA. The leased site is bounded to the north by the railway tracks of the LIRR’s Port Washington line; United Nations Avenue North to the south; the Passerelle Building (connects LIRR’s Mets-Willets Point station to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority [MTA]’s 7 train station, and Citi Field, the New York Mets baseball stadium) and Path of the Americas to the east2; and Grand Central Parkway to the west.3 The 42-acre NTC is one of the world’s largest public recreational tennis facilities. For 11 months of the year, its facilities are open to the public for indoor and outdoor tennis; USTA maintains the facilities year-round. The NTC is also host to the US Open, one of the sport’s four Grand Slam championship tennis tournaments. The event is staged during a two-week period around the beginning of September, is attended by approximately 700,000 spectators, and is broadcast worldwide. The proposed project would improve the NTC site plan, circulation, visitor amenities, and landscaping, and would include construction of two new stadiums to replace the existing Louis Armstrong Stadium (Stadium 2) in the same location, and Grandstand Stadium (Stadium 3) in a new location at the southwest corner of the NTC site, as well as possible improvements to Arthur Ashe Stadium (Stadium 1).

  • On April 8Th, 1888 Thirty Men Sign a Charter. It Is the Birth of Local No. 4
    On April 8th, 1888 thirty men sign a charter. It is the birth of Local No. 4.These thirty men will always be remembered for this historic deed and for their legacy of trade unionism, tradition and brotherhood. Local No.4 becomes a driving force in the formation and future success of the organization. A SHORT HISTORY OF THEATRICAL STAGE EMPLOYES LOCAL NO.4, IATSE By Peter J Fitzpatrick January 2009 INTRODUCTION Theatrical Stage Employes Local No.4, IATSE is an organization that has withstood the test of time for over 120 years. The Local No.4 story begins at the infancy of trade unionism in a city called Brooklyn. The early history of Local No.4 and the city of Brooklyn are a shared experience. The city of Brooklyn is incorporated in 1834. By 1884, Brooklyn is the third largest city in the U.S.A. only New York City and Philadelphia are larger. At this time, Brooklyn is a city creating a rich cultural tradition in the arts and sciences. Legitimate, Stock, Vaudeville and Burlesque theatres abound throughout Brooklyn. At one point, there are over 200 theatres in Brooklyn. It is a tragedy that hardly any of these theatres exist today. The Brooklyn Academy of Music, America’s oldest performing arts center is built in1861. It burns to the ground on November 30th, 1903. It is rebuilt and opened again in the fall of 1908. Today, BAM is the premiere performing arts center in Brooklyn and a major employer of Local No. 4 members. The Majestic Theatre, built in 1904 survives today as part of BAM {The Harvey Theatre}.
