Isla Columbia (Nueva York)

La isla Columbia (en inglés: Columbia Island) es una isla situada en Long Island Sound y parte de New Rochelle, Nueva York.​ Está situada en la costa sur-oriental de la Davids' Island, inmediatamente adyacente a la Pea Island.​ La isla varía en tamaño, promediando cerca de 175 pies cuadrados, el equivalente a 16 258 metros cuadrados, dependiendo de la marea. Una vez fue propiedad de la familia Iselin quien lo vendió al Huguenot Yacht Club, junto con Pea Island en 1936, tres años más tarde el club vendió la Pea Island a la cadena televisiva CBS, que cambió el nombre a "Columbia". En 1940, la CBS comenzó la construcción de una base de hormigón para soportar un edificio del transmisor, con una vivienda de emergencia para diez trabajadores.​ La CBS gastó aproximadamente $ 500 000 para construir el transmisor y la emisión de la torre. La estación contiene un transmisor de 50 000 vatios, ubicado en unos 75 pies cuadrados (7,0 m²) con paredes de cobre. También había una unidad de transmisión de 5000 vatios para casos de emergencia. La energía eléctrica se suministraba por medio de dos cables submarinos, los cuales estaban conectados a las centrales eléctricas independientes, para evitar la interrupción del servicio. Los generadores de emergencia se instalaron en la isla para la protección contra fallos de energía.​ Los hombres que operaban la estación vivían dentro de una carcasa metálica con conexión a tierra, que fueron cuartos para ingenieros, talleres, unidades eléctricas que suministran voltajes, y el generador de respaldo.​ El transmisor se mantuvo en funcionamiento hasta 1963, cuando se convirtió en obsoleto, y la estación se trasladó a la High Island (una isla cercana). En un tiempo, la isla fue comprada por la pareja del espectáculo Peter Lind Hayes y Mary Healy, quienes transmitieron un espectáculo matutino desde esta isla. Finalmente, la pareja estadounidense ofreció la isla Columbia al College of New Rochelle.​ Para mediados de 2005, el entonces propietario de la isla trató de demoler el viejo transmisor del edificio y reemplazarlo por una residencia privada. El cineasta y actor Al Sutton compró la Isla Columbia en 2007. Para que la isla fuese más acogedora y habitable, construyó una casa dentro del edificio de hormigón con paneles solares. Según Sutton, la isla es un «lugar para inspirarse en cosas diferentes. Es un diamante en bruto».​ Referencias

Confucius Plaza

Confucius Plaza Apartments is a limited-equity housing cooperative in Chinatown, Manhattan, New York City built as an affordable housing development under the Mitchell–Lama Housing Program. The 44-story brown brick tower block complex (433 ft (132 m)) with 762 apartments was constructed in 1975 at a cost of $38.387 million. The building was the first major public-funded housing project built for almost exclusively Chinese Americans. The Yung Wing Public School, P.S. 124 (K–5), shops, community space, and a daycare center are located beneath the apartments. The complex is located north of Chatham Square at the intersection of Bowery, Doyers Street, and Division Street. One of the most frequently visited landmarks in Chinatown is the 15-foot (4.6 m) bronze statue of Confucius, the Chinese philosopher, in front of the complex. Sculpted by Liu Shih, the statue was presented by the Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association as a token of appreciation, and to commemorate the U.S. bicentennial. At its base, a Confucian proverb is inscribed aside an American Flag, praising a just government with remarkable leaders of wisdom and ability. During the construction of Confucius Plaza, Asian American activists organized several successful protests alleging discriminatory hiring practices by the contractor, DeMatteis Organization, for refusing to hire Asian construction workers. On May 16, 1974, a protest of 250 individuals organized by Asian Americans for Equal Employment (now Asian Americans for Equality) resulted in a work stoppage when protestors entered the construction site. Protestors held signs in English and Chinese which stated "The Asians build the railroad; Why not Confucius Plaza" and "DeMatteis, you are big racist." Over 55 people were arrested for trespassing and disorderly conduct. Several weeks later, DeMatteis agreed to hire 27 minority workers. When the housing development was first completed in the mid 1970s, the purchase price of the apartments were going for $2000 to $3000 with the carrying charges being around $200 - $300. Though the building had better amenities than the area's tenement buildings in the neighborhood, during the initial years after construction, many local residents were hesitant to apply for the better affordable housing opportunity for this development due to the fact many were living in tenement apartments with relatively more affordable rent prices under Rent control or Rent stabilization protections despite often in substandard quality and overcrowding issues. Up until recent times, the purchase costs and carrying charges have remained very low. A section of Second Avenue Subway tunnel was built in the 1970s, constructed concurrently with the plaza underneath it, and is lightly graffitied.

Congregation Ohab Zedek

Congregation Ohab Zedek, sometimes abbreviated as OZ and formally known as the First Hungarian Congregation Ohab Zedek, is a Modern Orthodox Jewish congregation and synagogue located at 118 West 95th Street on the Upper West Side of Manhattan in New York City. The congregation is known for its lively, youthful congregation. Founded in 1873, it moved to its current location in 1926. The current clergy are Senior Rabbi Allen Schwartz and senior gabbai Allen Katz. Other current staff members include President, Johnny Glaser, Executive Director, Chad Hopkovitz and Secretary Jeff Korenman. History Lower East Side Congregation Ohab Zedek was founded in 1873 on the Lower East Side. The congregation built a synagogue building at 70 Columbia Street in 1881. In 1886 the congregation sold the Columbia Street building to Congregation Ahavath Acheim Anshe Ungarn and moved into the Gothic Revival-style synagogue at 172 Norfolk Street that is now the Angel Orensanz Center, the oldest surviving synagogue building in New York and the fourth-oldest in the United States. Rabbi Philip Klein served as its rabbi from 1890 to his death in 1926. 116th Street building In 1906–07 the congregation built and moved into a "monumental" building on 116th Street, in the newly fashionable neighborhood of Harlem. The "monumental" design was influenced by the Gothic character of the previous Norfolk Street home. The street-facing gable prominently featured a large four-centered arch-headed window over a large pedimented doorcase, appearing styled in loose or Vernacular Gothic on the interface of Moorish Revival architecture. The famous singer Yossele Rosenblatt was a cantor there from 1911 to 1926, and again in 1929. In 1926 OZ moved to its present building at 118 West 95th Street; the 116th Street property was sold, eventually becoming the Baptist Temple Church, which occupied the location for over five decades. Conversion into a church removed the Jewish-themed terracotta ornaments. Costly structural damage necessitated the building's demolition, which occurred slowly throughout late 2009 and early 2010. West 95th Street The current synagogue building at 118 West 95th Street (constructed in 1926) is noted for its Moorish Revival architecture. Designed by architect Charles B. Myers, the interior features magnificent Mudéjar style plasterwork. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on August 18, 2017. Early in the 21st century, the congregation became known for attracting large numbers of Orthodox Jewish singles to its services and programs. The congregation published a book in 2005 about its history, First Hungarian Congregation Ohab Zedek, written by Chaim Steinberger, a member of the congregation. Allen Schwartz has been the Rabbi since 1988. References External links Official website
Congregation Talmud Torah Adereth El

Congregation Talmud Torah Adereth El, abbreviated as Adereth El, is an Orthodox Jewish synagogue located on East 29th Street between Third and Lexington Avenues in the Rose Hill neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City, New York, United States. Founded in 1857, it claims to be the oldest synagogue in its original location with continuous services at the same location. History The Adereth El synagogue was founded by German Jewish immigrants in the fall of 1857. The synagogue opened a building on its current site on 29th Street in 1863, having purchased the lot for $5,000. The site was expanded in 1920 with the purchase of the three-story building at 133 East 29th Street. The present building, is the result of a 1945 renovation by architect Gustave Iser, followed by a 1994 renovation that "left little of the façade except the Star of David". Clergy Before he died in June 2013 at 100 years of age, Rabbi Sidney Kleiman was both the longest-serving and oldest active congregational rabbi in the United States. Rabbi Kleiman served as the congregation's rabbi since 1939 until 1996, when Rabbi Gideon Shloush joined the synagogue and Rabbi Kleiman became rabbi emeritus. After serving for a year in a part-time role, the current rabbi, since July 2021, is Rabbi Shua Mermelstein. Congregation Adereth El's current membership reflects the diversity of its neighborhood, Murray Hill. During the work week, many Jewish businessmen with nearby offices pray at the synagogue. Of note, many Adereth El members are students and faculty at the nearby New York University (NYU) medical center. The synagogue's proximity to the hospital also brings in many hospital patients’ visitors as guests at Adereth El services. In fact, the synagogue typically has multiple weekly baby-naming ceremonies due to the large number of labor and delivery visitors. Additionally, due to Adereth El's location near Yeshiva University’s Stern College for Women, many Stern students regularly attend the synagogue's services. In 2007, the congregation marked its 150th anniversary with a series of celebrations. A lecture series highlighted the history of Jews in New York City. A gala dinner was held at the Battery Gardens Restaurant in Battery Park in March.
