PUBLIC SCHOOL 72, 1674 Lexington Avenue, Aka 1674-1686 Lexington Avenue and 129- 131 East 105Th Street, Borough of Manhattan
Landmarks Preservation Commission June 25, 1996, Designation List 273 LP-1836 PUBLIC SCHOOL 72, 1674 Lexington Avenue, aka 1674-1686 Lexington Avenue and 129- 131 East 105th Street, Borough of Manhattan. Built 1879-82; Architect David I. Stagg, Superintendent of Public School Buildings, New York City Board of Education Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1633, Lot 13. On July 15, 1991 , the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Public School 72 and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 3). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. A total of eleven speakers testified in favor of the proposed designation; eight of those speakers were in favor of this as well as other items on the calendar at the hearing, but urged the Commission to continue its work in Harlem. Three speakers declined to take a position regarding this proposed designation until such time as that work continues. Summary Built in 1879-82, Public School 72 was the work of David I. Stagg, whose career in public school architecture spanned more than half a century and who was Superintendent of Public School Buildings for the New York City Board of Education from 1872 to 1886. A rare and almost completely intact example of a late nineteenth-century public school building in Manhattan, it was designed to meet the needs of a once-densely populated immigrant neighborhood in East Harlem. The school, which displays the range of sharply articulated detailing and angular ornament characteristic of the neo-Grec style, is an excellent example of that style as it was used in New York public school design during the late 1870s and 1880s. -

NYNSR goals are to expandthe number of small, excellent public schools in New York City neighborhoods, particularly those with few educational options; encourage the spreadof practices that help students succeed; build supportive small school networks; and advocate for increased school autonomy. Whether as new schools or as large schools redesigned into small units, small scale has been the key. NYNSR schools average 300 students. Many schools utilize servicelearning and internships, and all have partnerships with local organizations and universities to connect students to the responsibilities of citizenship and work. -

Educational Priorities Panel Capital Promises
EDUCATIONAL PRIORITIES PANEL CAPITAL PROMISES: WHY NYC CHILDREN DON’T HAVE THE SCHOOL BUILDINGS THEY NEED July 2007 This report was made possible by grants to the Educational Priorities Panel from The New York Community Trust and The Scherman Foundation and additional funding from the Schott Foundation for Public Education. Printing assistance for review copies of this report was provided by the office of NYC Councilmember Robert Jackson. Author: Noreen Connell SUMMARY AND INTRODUCTION The objective of this report is to answer the big questions about whether in the foreseeable future most school overcrowding in New York City will be eliminated and all city children will have class sizes and access to school libraries, science labs, art/music rooms, and physical fitness activities that are the norm for students in the rest of the state. The short answer is maybe, but not within the next few years. The Educational Priorities Panel (EPP) tackled these questions in the wake of a state budget agreement in the spring of 2006 to provide more school facilities funding to New York City. Instead of adopting a more ambitious BRICKS facilities plan fashioned by plaintiffs in a 14- year Campaign for Fiscal Equity (CFE) lawsuit, the NYS Legislature and the Governor created an EXCEL plan. This plan essentially met the Mayor’s demand that the financing of the city’s $13.1 billion Children First 2005-09 capital plan be restructured to ensure that at least half the funding be provided by the state. If the BRICKS plan had prevailed, the state would have provided the city school system with an additional $9.2 billion above the state’s $6.5 billion commitment for half of the city’s capital plan funding. -
