William Tecumseh Sherman (Saint-Gaudens)

La William Tecumseh Sherman, nota anche come Sherman Memorial o Sherman Monument, è una scultura all'aperto ritraente il generale unionista William Tecumseh Sherman opera di Augustus Saint-Gaudens. Situata al centro della Grand Army Plaza di Manhattan, a New York; venne ufficialmente scoperta nel 1902 e dedicata il 30 maggio del 1903. Il monumento in bronzo dorato è costituito da una statua equestre e una figura femminile allegorica, Nike, posta su un piedistallo in granito Stony Creek progettato dall'architetto Charles Follen McKim. Storia L'idea di erigere questa statua risale almeno al 1888. Nel 1902 l'architetto Charles Follen McKim e lo scultore Augustus Saint-Gaudens decisero di collocare una statua equestre in onore del generale statunitense William Tecumseh Sherman a Central Park. Erano stati presi in considerazione altri luoghi della città, come Sherman Square nell'Upper West Side, un punto del Riverside Drive, non lontano dalla tomba di Grant, e la Grand Army Plaza. Venne preso in considerazione anche il Central Park Mall, ma venne scartato. La statua venne inaugurata nella metà settentrionale di quella che sarebbe divenuta la Grand Army Plaza il 30 maggio del 1903. Dopo la morte dell'artista furono tratte alcune riduzioni della figura della Vittoria, inclusa una conservata nel museo Metropolitano di New York. Negli anni 1910 la piazza venne riqualificata dopo la morte dell'editore e giornalista Joseph Pulitzer, nel 1911, che lasciò in eredità 50.000 dollari per la creazione di una fontana commemorativa. Durante i lavori di costruzione della fontana, il monumento a Sherman rimase nella parte nord nella piazza, ma venne spostato di 4,6 metri per allinearlo simmetricamente alla fontana. Il 23 luglio del 1974, la Commissione per la Salvaguardia dei Monumenti (Landmarks Preservation Commission) inserì la Grand Army Plaza, incluso il monumento a Sherman, tra i luoghi urbani importanti (scenic landmarks) della città di New York. Il 26 marzo del 1985, furono presentati dei progetti alla Commissione per la Salvaguardia dei Monumenti per un restauro completo della piazza, incluso il monumento a Sherman. I lavori finirono nel giugno del 1990: la statua venne dorata nuovamente, e furono aggiunti un ramo di palma e una spada che erano stati rimossi in precedenza. La Grand Army Plaza venne riqualificata ulteriormente nel 2013, e la statua di William Tecumseh Sherman venne ridorata.

Sherman Monument

Het Sherman Monument is een verguld beeld van generaal William Tecumseh Sherman op het noordelijke deel van het Grand Army Plaza in New York. Het beeld is gemaakt door Augustus Saint-Gaudens. Geschiedenis Nadat generaal William Tecumseh Sherman in 1891 was overleden, werd door de Chamber of Commerce een comité samengesteld. Dat comité had als doel geld in te zamelen voor de bouw van een beeld van Sherman. Het comité besloot dat Augustus Saint-Gaudens het beeld zou ontwerpen. Het beeld van Sherman is gebaseerd op een portret van hem en Saint-Gauden verguld het beeld met twee lagen bladgoud. Hij had eerder een buste van Sherman gemaakt. Het beeldhouwen werd vertraagd door een ernstige ziekte van de Saint-Gaudens. Het voetstuk werd ontwerpen door architect Charles McKim. Uiteindelijk was het Sherman Monument in 1902, elf jaar na de plannen, klaar om op zijn plaats gezet te worden. Aanvankelijk zou het Sherman Monument bij de Grant's Tomb in het Riverside Park komen te staan, maar door bezwaar van Shermans nabestaanden werd besloten het beeld op het Grand Army Plaza te plaatsen. Het Sherman Monument werd ingewijd op 30 mei 1903, Memorial Day. Het beeld was het laatste belangrijke werk van beeldhouwer Saint-Gaudens. In 1913 werd het Sherman Monument vijf meter naar het westen verplaatst vanwege de herinrichting van het Grand Army Plaza. In 1989 werd de goudlaag van het beeld vernieuwd. Daarnaast werden tijdens die restauratie de palmtak en het zwaard vervangen. Ook in de zomer van 2013 werd het Sherman Monument gerestaureerd, waarbij de goudlaag nogmaals werd vernieuwd. Beeld Het vergulde beeld staat op een granieten voetstuk. Het beeld omvat Sherman, die op zijn paard zit, en een vrouw, die de vrede symboliseert. Harriette Eugenia Anderson stond model voor die vrouw. De vrouw is daarnaast mogelijk op Davida Johnson gebaseerd. Bij de hoeven van het paard bevindt zich een dennentak, die de mars van Sherman door Georgia symboliseert. Op het voetstuk staat het volgende: TO GENERAL WILLIAM TECUMSEH SHERMAN BORN FEB. 8, 1820 DIED FEB. 14, 1891 ERECTED BY CITIZENS OF NEW YORK UNDER THE AUSPICES OF THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK

Lipstick Building

Il Lipstick Building, conosciuto anche come 53rd at Third, è un grattacielo di 138 metri e 34 piani situato al 885 Third Avenue tra la East 53rd Street e la 54th Street a Manhattan, New York. Il nome dell'edificio, progettato da Philip Johnson, è dovuto alla sua particolare forma e al colore: ricordano infatti un rossetto (in inglese lipstick). Descrizione Il grattacielo, con la sua caratteristica pianta ellittica, spezza la rigida griglia ortogonale di Manhattan, divenendo uno dei più famosi di New York. Il suo architetto, Philip Johnson, lo definisce come "un edificio ovale in un ambiente rettangolare". L'edificio presenta tre arretramenti verso la punta, in modo da rispettare il regolamento edilizio vigente, che chiede di oscurare il meno possibile il suolo stradale. La pianta ellittica consente di lasciare libero uno spazio al pian terreno, sfruttato come area pubblica. La torre poggia alla base su delle colonne. La struttura è stata realizzata in cemento armato; è composta da delle colonne interne all'edificio e da altre perimetrali, collegate tra loro da travi orizzontali. L'edificio è rivestito da un curtain wall, alternando fasce di finestre con infissi di colore grigio a fasce di granito smaltato rosso. Data la forma della facciata, il sole, colpendo quest'ultima, genera effetti ed illusioni ottiche assai particolari.

Липстик-билдинг

Ли́пстик-би́лдинг (англ. Lipstick Building — «Здание в форме губной помады») — 138-метровый 34-этажный жилой небоскрёб в Манхэттене (Нью-Йорк, США), расположенный на Третьей Авеню, 885, между Пятьдесят третьей и Пятьдесят четвёртой улицами в районе Ситигруп-центра. Построен в 1986 году. Получил название из-за формы и цвета, напоминающих тюбик губной помады. На каждом из трёх уровней блоки здания уменьшаются в размере, чтобы не препятствовать доступу света к улице, из-за чего телескопообразная форма небоскрёба резко выделяется на фоне окружающей застройки. Здание занимает меньшую площадь в основании, чем обычный небоскрёб такой же высоты. Цоколь здания оформлен колоннадой, образующей вход в просторный холл. Колонны высотой в два этажа отделяют улицу от вестибюля, расположенного на девятиметровой высоте. Поскольку лифты и запасные лестницы расположены с тыльной стороны здания, эта область небоскрёба остается «полой». Внешний вид здания — длинная стена из красного имперского гранита и стали. Ленточные окна обрамлены серыми плафонами. Между этажами тянутся тонкие красные полоски, напоминающие след от губной помады. Неправильная форма здания позволяет свету отражаться от его поверхности под разными углами.

770 Broadway

770 Broadway is a 1,200,000-square-foot (110,000 m2) landmarked mixed-use commercial office building in NoHo, Manhattan, in Lower Manhattan, New York City, occupying an entire square block between 9th Street on the north, Fourth Avenue to the east, 8th Street to the south, and Broadway to the west. The building is owned and managed by Vornado Realty Trust. It was completed in 1907 and renovated in 2000 per a design by Hugh Hardy. Major tenants include Wegmans, with an 82,000-square-foot (7,600 m2) ground floor retail store that opened in 2023, Meta Platforms, which occupies 800,000 square feet (74,000 m2) and has sole roof access, and Yahoo!, which occupies the fourth, fifth, sixth and ninth floors. The building has one of the largest property tax bills in commercial real estate: $19.6 million in 2022. History 770 Broadway was built between 1903 and 1907 and was designed by Daniel Burnham as an annex to the original Wanamaker's department store in New York, which was across 9th Street to the north. The two buildings were connected by a sky bridge, dubbed the "Bridge of Progress", as well as a tunnel under 9th Street. The building originally included a central court and an auditorium with a pipe organ that hosted top musicians and orchestras, and was also an early television studio. In 1954, Wanamaker's closed as department stores expanded to the suburbs and major retail migrated toward Midtown. The northern lot was sold in 1955. In 1956, a fire gutted the original Wanamaker's department store building while it was under demolition, injuring 77 people. The annex at 770 Broadway survived and was leased up; in 1958, the ground floor was leased to the United States Army, in 1959, Manhattan Savings Bank leased space for a branch in the building. In November 1996, Kmart opened a store in the ground floor retail space. Two years later in July 1998, Vornado Realty Trust acquired the building for $149 million. In 2000, the building was renovated to a design by Hugh Hardy. In 2007, AOL moved its headquarters to 152,000 square feet (14,100 m2) in the building. Vornado obtained a $700 million loan for the building in 2016. Facebook Inc. (later Meta) gradually leased space in the building, occupying most of the structure, or about 813,000 square feet (75,500 m2), by the early 2020s. In July 2021, the Kmart store was closed and the space was leased to Wegmans, which opened a store there in October 2023. The building was refinanced again in 2022 with a $700 million loan. After Meta downsized its space in the building, Vornado agreed in 2024 to lease 1.1 million square feet (100,000 m2) of office space to New York University. Meta will continue to occupy approximately around 500,000 sq ft of office space in the building. References External links Media related to Wanamaker Annex at Wikimedia Commons
770 Broadway

770 Broadway es un gran edificio de oficinas comerciales de uso mixto en NoHo, Manhattan, en el Bajo Manhattan, Ciudad de Nueva York . El edificio ocupa una cuadra entera entre las calles 9 y 8 de norte a sur, y entre Broadway y la cuarta avenida, de oeste a este. Inicialmente albergó los grandes almacenes de Wanamaker, ahora desaparecidos. Historia 770 Broadway fue construido entre 1903 y 1907 por el arquitecto estadounidense Daniel Hudson Burnham como un anexo a los grandes almacenes originales de Wanamaker's en Nueva York, que estaba al otro lado de la calle 9 hacia el norte​ y había comenzado su vida como el "Palacio de Hierro" de AT Stewart en 1862. Los dos edificios estaban conectados por un puente elevado, apodado el "Puente del Progreso", así como por un túnel debajo de la calle 9. El anexo originalmente incluía un patio central y un auditorio con un órgano de tubos. El auditorio acogió ambiciosos musicales con los mejores músicos y orquestas, y también fue uno de los primeros estudios de televisión. En 1954, debido a la migración hacia el norte del distrito comercial, Wanamaker's decidió cerrar el negocio. Los grandes almacenes en ese momento se estaban expandiendo a los suburbios. El lote del norte se vendió en 1955. Un incendio al año siguiente destruyó el edificio Stewart mientras estaba bajo demolición,​​ hiriendo a setenta personas.​ El anexo en 770 Broadway sobrevivió y se convirtió en espacio de oficinas que rápidamente se llenó de inquilinos, entre ellos Chemical Bank (ahora JP Morgan Chase ).​ Inquilinos actuales 770 Broadway alberga varias marcas mundiales importantes, que incluyen: Verizon Media,​ incluidas varias de sus marcas: HuffPost ​ Yahoo! AOL​ Engadget Moviefone Facebook,​ que alquila 6 pisos y tiene acceso exclusivo al techo​ J.Crew​ Nielsen​ El sótano, el nivel de la calle y el segundo piso están alquilados por una tienda departamental de descuento Kmart, inaugurada en 1996.

Mahlstedt's Ice Pond

Mahlstedt's Ice Pond, commonly referred to as Huguenot Lake, is a man-made lake located in central New Rochelle in Westchester County, New York. Constructed in 1885, the lake is impounded by the Mahlstedt Reservoir Dam on a tributary of Pine Brook. The dam is of earthen construction and rock fill, with a height of 15 feet (4.6 m) and a length of 7,000 feet (2,100 m). It has a normal surface area of 14 acres (5.7 ha), a capacity of 70 acre-feet (86,000 m3), and normal storage of 56 acre-feet (69,000 m3). For years the lake served as a water supply source for nearby Mount Vernon as well as a successful ice supply business. Several generations of the Mahlstedt family harvested ice from the lake, however, after refrigeration made the once-lucrative business obsolete, the family sold the lake and adjoining property to the city in 1922. The lake is currently part of Huguenot Park and the New Rochelle High School campus. It is currently used for recreational and environmental purposes. Freshwater wetland and stream restoration A restoration project on the extended campus grounds of New Rochelle High School was completed to stabilize the eroding banks along Stephenson Brook. The banks were regraded, biodegradable support structures were installed for additional support, and the area was planted with perennials, shrubs and trees to purify the water and keep the banks permanently stabilized. Upland vegetation was also added along the shoreline of Huguenot Lake to control erosion and enhance habitat for wildlife. Yellow Iris, Blue Flag Iris, and reindeer moss were added because they naturally filter pollutants including nitrogen and phosphorus, as well as enhancing the aesthetics of the lake's shoreline.
