ATURA

ATURA (аббревиатура от англ. Atlantic Terminal Urban Renewal Area, дословно: Обновлённая территория вокзала Atlantic Terminal) — квартал района Даунтаун в северо-западном Бруклине Нью-Йорка. Квартал окружён районами Проспект Хайтс, Парк Слоуп и Форт Грин. В 2000-х годах стал объектом общественного внимания в связи с проектом по модернизации района (проект Atlantic Yards). История В середине XX века существовало много планов по развитию данной территории. Наиболее популярной идеей было строительство нового бейсбольного стадиона команды Доджерс. Однако она была отвергнута главным архитектором Нью-Йорка Робертом Мозесом. В 1962 году планы по развитию района всерьёз заинтересовали мэрию. На их реализацию была заложена астрономическая по тем временам сумма в 150 млн долларов (1 млрд долларов по курсу 2006 года). В 1968 году территорией заинтересовался Университет Лонг-Айленда. Однако их проект также был отвергнут тогдашним мэром Нью-Йорка Джоном Линдси. В 1970 году разрабатывался план застройки района экономичным жильём. Проектом занялся Нью-Йоркский Университет. Однако реализовать его также было не суждено вследствие финансового кризиса. В 1978 году при создании исторического квартала района Форт Грин, этот проект был взят за основу. Развитие территории слишком затягивалось, и не все были этим довольны. Многие считали, что новые грандиозные проекты будут затрагивать соседние районы элитного жилья. В итоге, власти пришли к консенсусу. На реализацию нового проекта, включавшего 167 000 м2 офисных площадей и 49 000 м2 жилья, было заложено 500 млн долларов. Автором проекта стал главный архитекторор Сан-Франциско Питер Калторп. Жители соседнего района Форт Грин подали на застройщиков в суд. Они считали, что столь грандиозное строительство всего в одном квартале от их района неблагоприятно скажется на экологии. Суд не состоялся, однако и строительству не суждено было начаться. Виной всему очередной финансовый кризис, повлиявший на падение спроса на офисные помещения. В 1990-х годах район начал понемногу меняться за счёт частных вложений в различные небольшие проекты. Так в районе появилась штаб-квартира корпорации Forest City Enterprises, в 2003 году завершилось строительство роскошного небоскрёба Newswalk Building, в 2004 был открыт супермаркет Atlantic Terminal.

Comedy Cellar

The Comedy Cellar is een bekende stand-upcomedy-club in de Greenwich Village-buurt van Manhattan, New York City. De club, gelegen op 117 MacDougal Street, staat bekend als een belangrijke plek waar veel comedians hun carrière hebben opgebouwd en nog steeds nieuw materiaal testen. Geschiedenis De club werd in 1981 opgericht door de toenmalige stand-upcomedian en latere televisieproducent Bill Grundfest, in samenwerking met café-eigenaar Menachem "Manny" Dworman. De optredens vonden plaats in de kelder van Manny's Olive Tree Café. In de beginjaren was het moeilijk om publiek te trekken; shows gingen soms door voor zeer kleine zalen of zelfs één toeschouwer. Manny Dworman overleed in 2003/2004 en zijn zoon Noam Dworman nam de leiding over. Noam breidde de activiteiten uit met nabijgelegen locaties zoals de Village Underground en Fat Black Pussycat. De boekingen worden al decennia gedaan door Estee Adoram, die sinds 1984 betrokken is en een belangrijke rol speelt in het ontdekken en ontwikkelen van talent. Bekende comedians Veel prominente comedians hebben opgetreden in The Comedy Cellar, waaronder Jon Stewart, Dave Chappelle, Amy Schumer, Louis C.K., Ray Romano, Chris Rock, Jerry Seinfeld en anderen. De club wordt vaak gezien als een "proeflokaal" voor nieuw materiaal. De club is verschenen in films, series en documentaires, zoals de openingscredits van de serie Louie en diverse comedy specials.

Avalanche Lake (New York)

Avalanche Lake is a 9-acre (3.6 ha) mountain lake located in the Adirondack High Peaks in New York. Avalanche Lake sits at 2,885 feet (879 m) between 4,714-foot (1,437 m) Mount Colden and 3,816-foot (1,163 m) Avalanche Mountain. The two mountains rise in vertical cliffs from the surface of the lake. Immediately west of Avalanche Mountain (formerly known as Caribou Mountain) lies the MacIntyre Range: 5,115-foot (1,559 m) Algonquin Peak (the second highest mountain in the state), 4,829-foot (1,472 m) Boundary Peak, 4,843-foot (1,476 m) Iroquois Peak and 4,380-foot (1,340 m) Mount Marshall. Mount Marcy is 2.5 miles (4.0 km) to the east. Avalanche Lake feeds Lake Colden to the south, in the Hudson River watershed. To the north, the trail to the lake from the Adirondak Loj surmounts Avalanche Pass, which is only slightly above lake level but separates it from the Lake Champlain (St. Lawrence River) watershed. Following the lake toward Lake Colden, the trail is choked with large boulders, and a number of wooden ladders have been built to make passage possible. There are also three places where the trail takes to wooden catwalks, first built in the 1920s, that are bolted directly into the cliff face. This section is known as the "Hitch-Up Matilda;" in 1868 when a mountain guide waded to carry one of his clients past a point with no footing on shore, her husband urged her to sit higher on his shoulders. History The European discovery of the lake dates to an 1833 surveying party led by Judge John Richards and Major Reuben Sanford; it was named by William C. Redfield. A large avalanche occurred on August 20, 1869, that created a number of the landslides on Mount Colden, the rubble from which substantially raised the level of the lake. Another avalanche in 1942 caused further slides that raised the lake level by 10 feet (3.0 m).

Avalon Morningside Park

The Avalon Morningside Park is a luxury apartment building in the Morningside Heights neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City, New York, United States. It was constructed in 2007 on a piece of land that formerly constituted a portion of the cathedral close of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine. The building, a twenty-story glass tower, can be seen from Morningside Park nearby. The Cathedral initially retained ownership of the land, with AvalonBay Communities holding a 99-year lease. In 2019, the land was sold, as well. The diocese explained that it was in desperate need of the $130 million generated by the project, which aroused considerable opposition in the surrounding community.

Avenues: The World School

Avenues The World School is an international system of for-profit private schools for toddler-12th grade. The first campus opened in September 2012 in New York City in the neighborhood of Chelsea. The second one opened in 2018 in Sao Paulo, Brazil in the Morumbi neighborhood. History Avenues was founded by Benno C. Schmidt Jr., former president of Yale University; Chris Whittle, an entrepreneur in media and education who had previously founded Edison Schools; and Alan Greenberg, who had been publisher of Esquire. In 2015, Whittle left Avenues and later founded Whittle School & Studios. Prior to opening its New York campus in 2012, the company raised $85 million. The New York campus opened after a $60-million renovation, led by Perkins Eastman Architects and Bonetti Kozerski Studio, of the R.C. Williams Warehouse, a building originally designed by Cass Gilbert in 1928. The school opened with 12 of its planned 15 grades for the 2012–2013 school year, including all grades between nursery and ninth grade. The 10th, 11th and 12th grades were added over the subsequent three years. Avenues' first graduating class was in spring 2016. The school was unusual among New York City private schools in offering a binding early admission option. Avenues and several students from the school were heavily featured in the 2015 documentary film Class Divide, which explores the topic of gentrification. In October 2023, Avenues New York and Avenues São Paulo were acquired by Nord Anglia. Plans to open an additional campus in Miami were canceled in March 2024. As of 2023, the newest school in Silicon Valley is occupying temporary space at Mission College in Santa Clara until its newly designed campus opens in San Jose.

In 1994, JCPenney built a new store next to its original store, with mall management reconstructing the former space to feature more small store space. TJ Maxx was added the same year replacing space previously occupied by Magrams. In 1998, Caldor shuttered and was converted to The Bon-Ton. Target built on in 2004, and Dick's Sporting Goods moved into remaining space of the original JCPenney in 2005. In 2017, Regal Cinemas opened after expanding from seven screens to nine and was upgraded to feature new flooring and wall coverings along with reclining seats. The dawn of the 2020s saw several storied traditional department store retailers update its brick-and-mortar formats after being encroached upon to a degree by several digital retailers in recent years. On April 17, 2018 it was announced department store retailer The Bon-Ton would be shuttering after it wasn't able to establish any new conditions to satisfy its established long-term debt. On March 4, 2019, it was announced that the previous The Bon-Ton outpost would become an Ollie's Bargain Outlet which was set to open August 28, 2019. On August 22, 2018, it was announced that Sears would shutter as part of an ongoing decision to phase out of brick-and-mortar. Potential replacement tenants have been rumored in discussion since 2019. On November 12, 2025, ADK Karting opened up inside the former Sears building. ADK Karting is a go-karting venue that was constructed throughout 2025. ADK Karting also includes an arcade and glow mini-golf course Attached to the go-kart venue is a bar and grill restaurant that opened along with ADK Karting called Paddock 578.

Bailey Hall (Ithaca, New York)

Bailey Hall is the largest auditorium at Cornell University, an Ivy League university in Ithaca, New York. The auditorium seats 1,300 people, and it is named for Liberty Hyde Bailey, the first dean of what is now Cornell's College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. History 20th century Bailey Hall was constructed in 1912, according to the Greek Revival architecture design of Buffalo-based architect Edward Brodhead Green, an 1878 graduate of Cornell University. It is shaped as an amphitheatre, with a colonnaded portico wrapping around its south side, and monumental stairs leading up to 11-foot main doors. It was built by New York state and initially intended for use by Cornell University agriculture students, but it also filled the need for a large auditorium that could be used by the entire university. As originally configured, Bailey seated 1,948. It was described as having "acoustics by God, seats by Torquemada," a reference to its wooden seats and severely raked floor. In 1984, Bailey Hall was added to the National Register of Historic Places. 21st century In 2006, the building reopened after a major rehabilitation which brought it up to modern building codes and made it handicapped-accessible, albeit at the cost of several hundred seats of audience capacity. The road and small parking lot immediately in front of Bailey were converted into a pedestrian plaza which was opened to the public in 2007. The flagstones of the plaza are hewn from bluestone, similar to the material used to construct the Stone Row on the Arts Quad. Some of the stones were thermally treated to alter their colors to achieve a cosmetic effect. The benches ringing the plaza extend to 300 feet in length, each having been hewn from a single Oregon Douglas fir. A fountain carved from local stone into a natural, sloping shape invoking Ithaca's gorges is featured on the southern edge of the plaza. References External links "Bailey Hall at Cornell University
Bailey Hall (Ithaca)

Bailey Hall è il più grande auditorium dell'Università Cornell, un'università della Ivy League situata a Ithaca. L'auditorium, che può ospitare 1 300 persone, prende il nome da Liberty Hyde Bailey, il primo preside di quello che oggi è il College of Agriculture and Life Sciences della Cornell. Storia 20º secolo Bailey Hall fu costruito nel 1912 secondo il progetto neogreco dell'architetto Edward Brodhead Green, originario di Buffalo e laureato all'Università Cornell nel 1878. Ha la forma di un anfiteatro con un portico colonnato che avvolge il lato sud e una monumentale scalinata che conduce alle porte principali alte 3,4 metri (11 ft). Fu costruito dallo Stato di New York e inizialmente destinato agli studenti di agraria dell'Università Cornell, ma rispondeva anche all'esigenza di un grande auditorium utilizzabile da tutta l'università. Nella sua configurazione originale, il Bailey Hall poteva ospitare 1 948 persone. Era descritto come dotato di "un'acustica divina e sedili da Torquemada", un riferimento ai suoi sedili in legno e al pavimento fortemente inclinato. Nel 1984, l'edificio è stato inserito nel registro nazionale dei luoghi storici. 21º secolo Nel 2006, dopo un'importante ristrutturazione che lo ha reso conforme alle moderne norme edilizie e accessibile ai disabili, anche se a costo di diverse centinaia di posti a sedere, l'edificio è stato riaperto. Nel 2007, la strada e il piccolo parcheggio di fronte al Bailey Hall sono stati trasformati in una piazza pedonale aperta al pubblico. Le lastre di pietra della piazza sono state ricavate dalla pietra blu, simile a quella utilizzata per costruire la Stone Row nell'Arts Quad. Alcune pietre sono state sottoposte a trattamento termico per alterarne il colore e ottenere un effetto estetico. Le panchine che circondano la piazza si estendono per 91 metri (300 ft) e sono state ricavate da un unico abete di Douglas dell'Oregon. Sul lato sud della piazza si trova una fontana scolpita nella pietra locale, dalla forma naturale e inclinata, che ricorda le gole di Ithaca.
