Dayton's Corners School

Dayton's Corners School is a one-room school building in the town of Penfield, New York. Erected in 1857, it sits at the corner of Plank Road and Creek Street and was part of Penfield District #9. It is the only one-room school house in the area that is still standing and has not been converted to some other use. The building was part of the Webster Central School District between 1948 and 1991, although it was only used as a schoolhouse until the early 1960s. The building has been maintained by Penfield's recreation department since 1976; it was purchased by the town in 1991. The original school grounds are adjacent to the school building. The school and its grounds are used by fourth-grade teachers in the Penfield Central School District and other local school districts as part of the state-mandated local history curriculum. The red brick building was designated a Penfield Landmark in 1983 and added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 5, 2001. A coloring book called "A Day at Dayton's Corners" was created in 2010 as part of the town of Penfield's bicentennial celebrations.

De Vinne Press Building

El El De Vinne Press Building es un edificio de ladrillo en el distrito NoHo del bajo Manhattan, Nueva York (Estados Unidos). Está ubicado en 393-399 Lafayette Street en la esquina de East 4th Street. Fue construido en 1885-1886 y diseñada por la firma Babb, Cook & Willard en estilo neorrománico. Se hizo una adición al edificio en 1892. Historia Theodore Low De Vinne, un destacado tipógrafo e impresor de Nueva York que fue uno de los nueve hombres que fundaron el Grolier Club (una organización dedicada a la historia de la imprenta),​ hizo construir el edificio para su imprenta.​ La prensa imprimió varias revistas estadounidenses líderes, incluidas St. Nicholas Magazine, Scribner's Monthly y The Century. De Vinne también escribió libros como The Invention of Printing, Correct Composition y Title Pages.​ De Vinne murió en febrero de 1914 y, en 1922, la empresa cesó sus operaciones.​ En 1904, el arquitecto y crítico de arte Russell Sturgis dijo en Architectural Record que "Ninguna fotografía da el sentido completo de su grandeza, su amplitud y su masa. Más de una vez, los visitantes que se dirigían a verlo han sido detenidos repentinamente por una repentina sensación de su gran presencia".​ En 2003, el historiador de arquitectura Christopher Gray de The New York Times describió el edificio como "una de las obras de mampostería más sofisticadas de Nueva York, un tour de force de albañilería honestamente simple construida para una de las principales imprentas de hace un siglo".​ Originalmente, la participación financiera de De Vinne en la propiedad estaba limitada al 25 por ciento y el resto estaba en manos de Roswell Smith, fundador de Century Company. Siete años después del cierre de la imprenta, los herederos de De Vinne vendieron su participación en el patrimonio de Smith en 1929. El edificio más tarde se convirtió en una fábrica de metalistería,​ y en 1938, la finca Smith vendió la propiedad a Walter Peek Paper Corporation. En 1982, Walter Peek vendió el edificio a Edwin Fisher.​ Ahora está ocupado por el Astor Center de 1021 m², propiedad de la familia Fisher. El Centro Astor contó con un salón de clases y un "área de comedor para degustaciones y cenas de vino".​ A partir de 2014, el edificio albergaba a Astor Wines and Spirits (dirigida por Andrew Fisher, hijo de Edwin Fisher), André Balazs Properties, the Orchard (una empresa de distribución digital), el estudio fotográfico y productora Shootdigital, y Helpern Architects ( fundado por David Paul Helpern), entre otros.​ Estado de referencia El edificio de prensa De Vinne fue designado un hito de la ciudad de Nueva York en 1966 y se agregó al Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos en 1977.​ Véase también Historia de Nueva York Referencias Enlaces externos Copia digitalizada de texto completo de uno de los primeros libros de De Vinne Press - Jean Grolier de servier Viscount d'Aguisy : algún relato de su vida y de su famosa biblioteca por William Loring Andrews

Deke House (Ithaca, New York)

Deke House, the Delta Kappa Epsilon or "Deke" House on the campus of Cornell University, was built in 1893 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991. It was designed by William Henry Miller to serve as a fraternity house. Two trees which Theodore Roosevelt planted in front of the house are on the National Register of Historic Trees. It is located at 13 South Avenue in Ithaca, New York. The original 1893 building was designed to house only 16 students. Three sides of the exterior were clad with marble from the St. Lawrence Marble Company of Gouverneur, New York. It was built on land leased to the fraternity by Cornell University. Except for World War II, it was occupied continuously by the fraternity from September 1894 through May 2014. During World War II, it was occupied by Navy personnel being trained at Cornell. From September 2014, through May 2018, it housed single, male graduate and professional students. In August 2018, the fraternity returned. In 1900, Miller was retained to design an addition to the original 12 x 15 foot dining room. He enclosed the loggia on the west side of the building to add 500 square feet. In 1910, the fraternity hired the architectural firm of Gibb and Waltz of Ithaca, New York to design a new addition on the east side of the house. In response to objection of the professor occupying 9 South Avenue, Cornell required that the new east wall of the house not have any windows "except such as may be stationary and glazed with cathedral or prism glass or otherwise so that the interior may be invisible from the outside". This wing brought the house to its present form. In the 1990s, the south half of the property was converted into a university parking lot. In 1991, the building was added to the national register, and in 2003 the City of Ithaca designated it a Landmark.

Delta Lake State Park

Delta Lake State Park is a 720-acre (2.9 km2) New York state park located on a peninsula extending from the southeast shore of Delta Lake in Oneida County, New York, United States. It is located off New York State Route 46, southwest of Westernville and north of Rome, New York. History The peninsula that today contains Delta Lake State Park was created when the Mohawk River was impounded in 1908 to form Delta Lake, a reservoir intended to supply water to the New York State Barge Canal. The New York State Canal Corporation leased approximately 350 acres (1.4 km2) to the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation for the creation of a state park in 1962. In 2005, it was announced that the Canal Corporation would officially transfer the park's land, along with an additional 370 acres (1.5 km2), to the NYSOPRHP, bringing the park's total area to 720 acres (2.9 km2). In 2023, a portion of the park was created into a large dumping station, as previously there was only one small one. Facilities The park offers a beach, picnic tables and pavilions, volleyball nets, swing sets, a playground, a food concession, trails for hiking and bike riding, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling and ice fishing, recreation programs, a boat launch, a 3 loop campground with 101 tent and trailer sites, showers and multiple dump stations.

Deno's Wonder Wheel Amusement Park

Deno's Wonder Wheel Amusement Park is a family-owned amusement park located at Coney Island, Brooklyn, New York City. It features six adult rides and 16 kiddie rides, including a dozen family rides that parents and children can ride together. The park is named for its main attraction, the Wonder Wheel, a 150-foot (46 m) eccentric wheel built in 1920. The park overlooks the Atlantic Ocean and Riegelmann Boardwalk along the Coney Island beach. The Wonder Wheel was made a New York City designated landmark by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission in 1989. History The 150-foot-tall (46 m) Wonder Wheel predates the park, having opened in 1920. It was designed by Charles Hermann, and created and built by Herman Garms in 1918-1920 by the Eccentric Ferris Wheel Company. Until the construction of the 250-foot-tall (76 m) Parachute Jump, it was the tallest attraction in Coney Island. It was a stand-alone attraction operated by Herman Garms. In 1955, Garms built Spook-a-Rama, an indoor dark ride. Near these two attractions, Denos Vourderis opened a restaurant called the Anchor Bar & Grill. Also, next door to the Wonder Wheel, stood a small kiddie amusement park called Ward's Kiddie Park owned by John Curran. That area was built in 1950. Denos opened up a concession stand there in 1970. In 1976, Denos bought the kiddie amusement park from Curran. In 1983, Denos acquired the Wonder Wheel and Spook-a-Rama from Fred Garms and Walter Kerner Sr. Today the park still has predominantly children's rides along with several family attractions. Since Denos's death in 1994, the park has been operated by his two sons, Dennis and Steve. In January 2020, Deno's Amusement Park announced a major expansion to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the Wonder Wheel. The expanded park would take over part of the abandoned West 12th Street amusement area, shuttered since 2017. The Vourderis family paid $6 million for the land and another $5.5 million for an unnamed ride. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic in New York City, the park did not open for the 2020 season, and the expansion was delayed. A Vekoma Suspended Family Coaster called Phoenix soft-opened on June 26, 2021, with a full opening on July 1. Also open in 2021 is Sky Flyer, a micro coaster from SBF Visa Group, which Deno's had purchased at the 2019 IAAPA Expo.

Denton House (New Hyde Park, New York)

The Denton House is a historic building in North New Hyde Park, New York, within the Town of North Hempstead. Built in 1795 as a farmhouse, it was converted in the 1860s to a Georgian-style mansion. It is currently a McDonald's restaurant. History The building was built as a farmhouse for the family of Joseph Denton in 1795. The owners were descendants of Richard Denton, a Presbyterian minister who immigrated in 1630 and a founder of the town, and his son, colonist Daniel Denton. In the 1860s, it was converted into a Georgian-style mansion, with ornamentation. The house ceased being a private residence after World War I, at which point it became a funeral home and then a series of restaurants. McDonald's acquired the dilapidated property in 1985, intending to demolish it and build a standard structure. North Hempstead and residents of the New Hyde Park community successfully sought historic designation after a three-year battle, which was formally given on January 5, 1988. An agreement was reached with McDonald's to allow a single-story addition to the back for a drive-thru if the front exterior was restored to its 1926 appearance. After an extensive renovation which included installing a series of windows for the veranda, and restoration of the ornamentation, window shutters, and brick chimneys, McDonald's opened in the historic building on April 13, 1991. A plaque commemorating the opening can be found inside the dining room. The inside was gutted in the process, including exposed rafters. A grand staircase leads to a dining area on the second floor. As part of McDonald's company-wide renovation program, the Denton House received another renovation in 2017. Intended to conform with McDonald's design standards while still maintaining a historic look, the renovation refinished the interior woodwork and flooring, updated the restrooms, and added amenities consistent with McDonald's remodels, including digital menu boards, touchscreen ordering kiosks, and table service. The window shutters and front doors were also restored and repainted black.
