Ten years have elapsed since the corner stone of this Institu­ tion was laid, and to-night is completed the fifth academic year of its existence. Founded by the liberality of a single individual, for the express purpose of improving the working classes, from whose ranks he had forced his way to wealth and influence; conveyed to six Trustees, selected from among his relatives and personal friends in order to insure harmony of action ; managed by them without appeals for popular aid or applause, but under the most solemn sense of the responsibility of the great trust which had been confided to them—the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and A rt has at length reached a position in which its aims are perfectly defined, and its results begin to be of a magni­ tude to interest all classes in the community. The working classes of this city cannot be elevated and improved without a di­ rect benefit to all other classes; and it is one of the most gratify­ ing features of the public receptions and exhibitions of this In­ stitution, that here all classes meet and mingle together on terms of perfect equality, and with mutual confidence and respect. The Trustees have endeavored to cultivate this relation in all parts of their organization, and they advert to it upon this occasion, be­ cause in the name of “ Union,” selected by the founder of the In ­ stitution as its corporate title, it was designed to inculcate the great social lesson of the mutual dependence and inseparable in­ terests which bind together all classes in organized communities, and which should produce united good will and steady efforts for the general progress and welfare. The trust deed of Mr. Cooper directs that the revenues of the corporation shall be devoted to and among the following objects and purposes: 1. To regular courses of instruction,t naight, free to all who shall attend th e same, under the general regulations of the Trustees, on the appl ication of science to the useful occupations of life, on social and political science, meaning thereby not merely the science of political economy, but the science and philosophya ofjust and equitable form of government, based upon the great fundamental law that nations and men should do unto each other as they would be done by, and on such other branches of knowledge asi n the opinion of the Board of Trus­ tees will tend to improve and elevate the working classes in the city of New York. 2. To the support and maintenance of a free reading room, of gal­ leries of art, and of scientific collections, designed, in the opinion of the Board of Trustees, to improve and instruct those classes of the inhabitants of the city of New York whose occupations are such as to be calculated, in the opinion of the said Board of Trustees, to deprive them of proper recreation and instruction. 3. To provide and maintain a school for the instruction of respect­ able females in the arts of design, and, in the discretion of the Board of Trustees, to afford to respectable females instruction in such other art or trade as will tend to furnish them suitable employment. 4. As soon as in the opinion of the Board of Trustees the funds which shall from time to time be at their disposal, will warrant such an expenditure, such funds shall be appropriated to the establishment and maintenance of a thorough polytechnic school; the requirements to admission to which shall be left to the discretion of the said Board of Trustees, and shall be specifically determined by them from time to time ; and which school shall, as far as possible, and as soon as pos­ sible, be made equal to the best technological schools now established, or hereafter to be established. Until the funds at the disposal of the Board of Trustees shall be sufficient, in the opinion of the said Board of Trustees, for the establishment of such polytechnic school, the said Board of Trustees may furnish with rooms and accommodation for such school, and may assist in the maintainance thereof, the depart­ ment of public instruction of the city of New York, the Trustees of any college or university, or any other body, individual, or indi­ viduals. 5. To provide rooms, in the judgment of the Board of Trustees, suitable for the offices of a society, to be organized as provided in the act hereinbefore specially referred to, and to be called “ The associates 9 of the Cooper Union for the advancement of Science and Art," and to f urnish to such society fori ts general meetings on one evening of each week, the great hall of the building, if the council of the said society shall require it so often. Accordingly, the Trustees, having reserved the great hall, in which we are ass embled, and the two floors next above, for rental, in order to procure a revenue for the purposes indicated, have established practically a free night college for the working classes, on as broad and liberal a scale as was consistent with their wants and the time they can devote to self-culture.

  • Chapter 5.1: Land Use, Zoning, and Public Policy A. INTRODUCTION
    Chapter 5.1: Land Use, Zoning, and Public Policy A. INTRODUCTION This chapter describes existing land use, zoning, and public policies applicable to the proposed project and evaluates potential significant adverse effects that may result from implementation of the proposed flood protection system. Potential significant adverse effects to land use as a result of implementing the flood protection system are also evaluated. Potential land use issues include known or likely changes in current land uses within the study area, as well as the proposed project’s potential effect on existing and future land use patterns. Potential zoning and public policy issues include the compatibility of the proposed project with existing zoning and consistency with existing applicable public policies. PROJECT AREA ONE Project Area One extends from Montgomery Street on the south to the north end of John V. Lindsay East River Park (East River Park) at about East 13th Street. Project Area One consists primarily of the Franklin Delano Roosevelt East River Drive (FDR Drive) right-of-way, a portion of Pier 42 and Corlears Hook Park as well as East River Park. The majority of Project Area One is within East River Park and includes four existing pedestrian bridges across the FDR Drive to East River Park (Corlears Hook, Delancey Street, East 6th Street, and East 10th Street Bridges) and the East Houston Street overpass. Project Area One is located within Manhattan Community District 3, and borders portions of the Lower East Side and East Village neighborhoods. PROJECT AREA TWO Project Area Two extends north and east from Project Area One, from East 13th Street to East 25th Street.

    Today we get excited about iPhones, iPads, and the like, but 160 years ago, when the key innovations were happening in railroads, iron, and steel, many people actually got excited about . I-beams! And among the centers of such excitement was Trenton, New Jersey. Figure 1: Petty's Run Steel renton became a center of these iron and steel innovations in the 19th Site, Trenton, 2013. In the century for the same reasons that spur innovation today—location, 1990s Hunter Research, Inc. uncovered the foundation of Tinfrastructure, skilled workers, and entrepreneurs. The city’s Benjamin Yard's 1740s steel resources attracted three of the more brilliant and visionary furnace, one of the earliest entrepreneurs of the 1840s—Peter Cooper, Abram S. Hewitt, and John A. steel making sites in the Roebling. They established iron and steel enterprises in Trenton that colonies. The site lies lasted for more than 140 years and helped shape modern life with between the N.J. State innovations in transportation, construction, and communications. Their House and the Old Barracks, legacy in New Jersey continues today with landmark suspension background, and the State and Mercer County have bridges, one of the State’s finest historic parks, repurposed industrial preserved and interpreted it. buildings, one of the best company towns in America, and in a new C.W. Zink museum. Abram Hewitt, Peter Cooper’s partner and future son-in-law, highlighted Trenton’s assets in 1853: “The great advantage of Trenton is that it lies on the great route between New York and Philadelphia” which were the two largest markets in the country.
