Americas Tower

Americas Tower je mrakodrap stojící ve městě New York. Má 50 pater a výšku 211 metrů. Výstavba probíhala v letech 1989–1992, ale původní termín dokončení byl v roce 1991.

Acquavella Galleries

Die Acquavella Galleries ist eine 1921 gegründete Kunsthandlung, die seit 1967 ihre Geschäftsräume in der Upper East Side von Manhattan in der East 79th Street Nr. 18 hat. Geschichte Der Gründer der Galerie war Nicholas Acquavella, der 1919 aus Neapel kommend in die USA einwanderte und zwei Jahre danach an der Adresse 598 Madison Avenue einen Kunsthandel mit italienischen Gemälden begann. Die seit dieser Zeit in Familienbesitz befindliche Galerie wuchs durch den Verkauf von Gemälden der italienischen Renaissance und des Barock an amerikanische Privatsammler und Museen. 1956 erwarb die Galerie, ebenso wie Armand Hammer, einen Teil der Sammlung des Filmschauspielers Edward G. Robinson. Seit 1960, als der Sohn des Gründers, William Acquavella, Mitinhaber der Galerie wurde, wurden Gemälde europäischer Maler des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts vermittelt. William konnte 1965 aus dem Nachlass von Pierre Bonnard 22 Gemälde erwerben, von denen er, bevor diese in der Galerie gezeigt wurden, bereits 17 an Sammler privat verkaufen konnte. 1960 schlossen sich die Acquavella Galleries mit dem Auktionshaus Sotheby’s in einer Tochtergesellschaft von Sotheby’s zur Firma Acquavella Modern Art zusammen. Dieser Zusammenschluss erwarb 1990 den gesamten Bestand der Pierre Matisse Gallery in Manhattan. William Acquavella konnte vermittels seines Fachwissens und dank seiner Beziehungen zu Sammlern und der Museumswelt die ungefähr 2300 Werke von Künstlern der Klassischen Moderne privat oder auf Auktionen veräußern. Inzwischen sind Acquavellas Tochter und zwei Enkel in der Galerie tätig. Der britische Maler Lucian Freud wurde bis zu seinem Tod 2011 von Acquavella Galleries vertreten. Heute vertritt die Galerie Künstler wie James Rosenquist, Enoc Perez oder Damian Loeb. Nach der Kunsthandlung ist der Meister der Acquavella-Stillleben benannt. Missgeschicke 2006 beschädigte der Kasinobesitzer Steve Wynn sein Picasso-Gemälde Le Rêve aus dem Jahre 1932 in dem Geschäftsräumen der Galerie, nachdem er es für US-$ 139 Millionen an den Hedgefondsmanager Steven A. Cohen verkauft hatte. Das Geschäft wurde nach diesem Schaden storniert. 2012 wurde ein weiterer Picasso (Femme Assise dans un fauteuil), der bei der Galerie verwahrt wurde, dort vor einer Versteigerung bei Sotheby’s beschädigt.

Adam Clayton Powell Jr. State Office Building

The Adam Clayton Powell Jr. State Office Building, originally the Harlem State Office Building, is a nineteen-story, high-rise office building located at 163 West 125th Street at the corner of Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard in the Harlem neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. It is named after Adam Clayton Powell Jr, the first African-American elected to Congress from New York. It was designed by the African-American architecture firm of Ifill Johnson Hanchard in the shape of an African mask in the Brutalist style. It is the tallest building in Harlem, overtaking the nearby Hotel Theresa. History The building was proposed in 1966 by then-Governor of New York State, Nelson Rockefeller, as the beginning of development to turn Harlem into a "truly viable community". Ground was broken in 1967 with the demolition of a Corn Exchange Bank building. In 1969 work was halted on the project as a result of demonstrators objecting to the racial makeup of the construction workforce and the intended purpose of the facility. By mid-1970 the dispute was resolved and work resumed on the site. The building was completed in 1973 and was initially known as the Harlem State Office Building. While the building was criticized for lacking basic requirements such as a building manager and fire equipment, in 1978 the location hosted Harlem's first giant Christmas tree. In 1983 the building was renamed the "Adam Clayton Powell Jr. State Office Building" after the former U.S. Representative, the Rev. Adam Clayton Powell Jr., who had died in 1972. The building was threatened with closure in 1994 due to budget cuts, but it remained open. Over the years, the building has been criticized as a "killer building" from the urban renewal movement of the 1960s that "disfigured" the neighborhood, and as an example of mediocre government architecture. However, others have embraced it as helping to focus the community's efforts in future development battles. In 2006, the Harlem Community Development Corporation partnered with the New York State Office of General Services to propose a redesign of the African Square that the building occupies. In popular culture In several episodes of the FX American comedy-drama Rescue Me, the building is used multiple times as the fictional headquarters of the department. The building is seen under final stages of construction in the 1972 American blaxploitation film Across 110th Street. As Joe Logart, played by Ed Bernard, makes his run to the train station, he is cornered by Capo Nick D'Salvio's men in his taxi and forced to flee on foot. He is later caught and thrown from the roof of the building.

Adams-Ryan House

Adams-Ryan House is a historic home located at Adams Basin in the town of Ogden in Monroe County, New York. It was constructed about 1825 and is a rare surviving example of an inn that operated along the towpath of the Erie Canal. The original structure reflects a vernacular Federal style. Later alterations added vernacular Greek Revival style details. Throughout the 19th century there were several additions to the original structure and in 1912 it underwent further alterations and remodeling. It ceased operating as an inn in 1916 and was virtually abandoned between 1939 and 1972. Also on the property are a contributing barn and privy. It operated as a bed and breakfast until it was sold as a private residence in 2018. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on September 5, 1985.

Adams Power Plant

De Edward Dean Adams Power Plant in Niagara Falls was de eerste grootschalige door waterkracht aangedreven wisselstroom-elektriciteitscentrale ter wereld. Van de waterkrachtcentrale, gebouwd in 1895, is alleen nog het transformatorhuis aanwezig, dat geregistreerd is als een U.S. National Historic Landmark. Geschiedenis De Adams Power Plant werd gebouwd naar aanleiding van een plan uit 1886 van ingenieur Thomas Evershed om de waterkracht van de Niagarawatervallen af te tappen via een 2300 meter lang gemetseld kanaal. De Cataract Construction Company, een bedrijf opgericht om dit idee te exploiteren en geleid door voorzitter Edward Dean Adams, formeerde als eerste in 1890 de International Niagara Commission om een plan te bedenken om de waterval te temmen. De commissie gaf de voorkeur aan elektriciteit, maar kon geen oplossing geven aan Cataract. In 1892 werd George Forbes ingehuurd als technisch raadgever en in mei 1893 overtuigde hij het bedrijf om een waterkrachtcentrale te bouwen op basis van meerfasige wisselstroom. Westinghouse Electric Company werd gecontracteerd voor het leveren van de 5000 paardenkracht (3700 kW), 25 Hz wisselstroomgeneratoren, gebaseerd op het werk van Nikola Tesla en Benjamin Lamme, terwijl I.P. Morris Company te Philadelphia de turbines mocht bouwen gebaseerd op het ontwerp van het Zwitserse bedrijf Faesch en Piccard. De elektriciteitscentrale was op 25 augustus 1895 operationeel. Het water werd afgetapt van de bovenloop van de Niagararivier en via een 2100 meter lange tunnel geleid naar de generatoren. Het metselen van de tunnel van 5,5 bij 6,5 meter nam drie jaar in beslag en gebruikte meer dan 16 miljoen stenen in een vierlaags bekleding. Het werk kostte ook het leven aan achtentwintig werklieden. De Niagara Power Station No.1, zoals deze centrale aanvankelijk werd genoemd, kon uiteindelijk 50.000 pk (37 MW) aan elektriciteit opwekken. De tien generatoren van 5000 pk elk waren opgedeeld in twee groepen van vijf met elk een eigen schakelbord. De uitgangsspanning van 2000 volt werd gebruikt in en rond Niagara Falls. Met transformatoren werd de spanning verhoogd naar 10.000 volt en getransporteerd naar gebieden rondom Niagara Falls. De spanning werd ook verhoogd naar 20.000 volt om te worden getransporteerd naar verder weg gelegen steden als Buffalo, Lockport en Tonawanda. Zowel de machinehal als het transformatorgebouw werd ontworpen door het architectenfirma McKim, Mead, and White. Lokaal gedolven kalksteen werd gebruikt voor de bouw ervan. In 1927 werd de elektriciteitscentrale officieel vernoemd naar Edward Dean Adams. De originele Westinghouse generatoren bleven operationeel totdat in 1961 de centrale werd gesloten na te zijn opgevolgd door de Robert Moses Niagara-centrale en de Lewiston Pump-Generating-centrale. Vier jaar later werden de generatoren verwijderd en de machinehal gesloopt. Alleen het transformatorgebouw bleef behouden. In 1975 werd het transformatorgebouw opgenomen in het National Register van Historische Plaatsen en in 1983 benoemd tot een National Historic Landmark en een IEEE Milestone in 1990. Galerij
Adirondack Correctional Facility

The Adirondack Correctional Facility is a medium-security prison in Ray Brook, New York, in the Adirondack Mountains between Saranac Lake and Lake Placid; it detains up to 566 people. History Adirondack Correctional Facility started as the Ray Brook Sanatorium, the first state-operated tuberculosis sanatorium, starting in 1904. Although medical developments made sanitoria obsolete starting in the mid-1950s, the State Sanatorium at Ray Brook continued to operate until the mid-1960s. The property was transferred from the Department of Health to the new Drug Addiction Control Commission, combining enforcement and treatment; in 1971 the new facility opened as the Ray Brook Rehabilitation Center, housing 70 to 130 female people with substance abuse disorders. However, it was judged a failure, and closed within five years. It was succeeded by a camp program for adult inmates, "Camp Adirondack". Working with the Department of Environmental Conservation, "campmen", as inmates were known, were employed in logging, sawmill, wildlife preservation, construction of campsites and snowmobile and cross-country ski trails, and construction of a toboggan run at the Mount Pisgah ski area. The camp also constructed the Ice Palace each winter for the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival. With the selection of Lake Placid for the 1980 Winter Olympics the inmates worked on the Olympic trails at Mount Van Hoevenburg. The camp facilities were used for Olympic staff housing, which led to renovation of the water treatment plant, sewage system, housing and food service areas. During the games, the inmates were relocated to other prison facilities in the state, and were replaced by 900 State Police and 300 U.S. Customs Bureau personnel, National Guard and security forces of foreign governments who provided security for the Games. An area of 200 acres (81 ha) of the facility was used as the site for the Olympic Village; after the games it became a new federal prison, the Federal Correctional Institution, Ray Brook. The newly improved facilities allowed a substantial increase in the prison population, which led to the erection of the first security fence around the perimeter of the complex. In 1981, Camp Adirondack was designated a medium-security facility and renamed the Adirondack Correctional Facility. As of 2010 Adirondack had a working capacity of 566. Literary connections Sylvia Plath's college boyfriend, Dick Norton (Buddy, of The Bell Jar) contracted tuberculosis while at Harvard University, and was sent to Ray Brook for treatment. Plath visited him in 1952, and broke her leg while skiing on Mount Pisgah in nearby Saranac Lake. Andrea Barrett's 2007 novel The Air We Breathe is based on a fictionalized Ray Brook Sanatorium.

Adirondack Hotel

Adirondack Hotel is a hotel in Long Lake, New York, located on New York State Route 30 in the hamlet of Long Lake. The existing hotel was built c. 1901 to replace the Lake House, a hotel built 1878–79 that burned in 1901. It was erected by Patrick Moynehan, a businessman from Glens Falls. The hotel was sold to the Jennings family of Long Lake in 1914 and ownership was transferred at subsequent points in 1924 and later. More recently, the hotel's exterior was re-surfaced with live edge siding. It is considered a good example of a midsize hotel once more common in the Adirondacks.

Adirondak Loj

The Adirondak Loj (pronounced "Adirondack Lodge") is a historic lodge in North Elba, Essex County, New York. It is near Lake Placid in the Adirondack Mountains. The current facility, located on the shore of Heart Lake, was built in 1927 and is owned and operated by ADK (Adirondack Mountain Club). The Loj property hosts the trailhead of the popular Van Hoevenberg Trail, which leads to Mount Marcy and Algonquin Peak, the two highest points in the state. Accommodations include private rooms and hostel-style bunkrooms, with a buffet breakfast included and dinner available by reservation. There are also campsites, lean-tos, and canvas tents available on the property at the Wilderness Campground, which is also managed by ADK. The Loj sits on a private protected area of 706 acres that includes Heart Lake and Mount Jo; the preserve is owned and managed by ADK. History Currently in its second iteration, the original Adirondack Lodge was designed by Henry Van Hoevenberg, one of the early trailblazers of the Adirondack High Peaks region and namesake of Mount Van Hoevenberg. The main draw to the Adirondack Lodge was its proximity to Algonquin and Marcy, which had trails cut up to their summits by Van Hoevenberg himself. It opened in 1890, and was well known for its beautiful vistas and colorful fireside storytelling by Van Hoevenberg. Eventually, due to near constant financial troubles, Van Hoevenberg was forced to sell the property in 1895, though he would remain on as a caretaker until 1898. During this time, the property changed hands several times before eventually ending up under the stable ownership of the Lake Placid Club in 1900. A member of the Lake Placid Club at that point, Van Hoevenberg found himself once again as a caretaker at his beloved lodge. However, disaster hit on June 3, 1903, when the entire structure was consumed in a catastrophic fire that swept Essex County. It was replaced by the present structure, designed by Saranac Lake architect William G. Distin, in 1927. Spelling The spelling of the building's name was changed from its original "Adirondack Lodge" to "Adirondak Loj" by a previous owner, Melvil Dewey, founder of the Lake Placid Club, creator of the Dewey Decimal System and ardent advocate of spelling reform.
