Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the City Planning Commission and the Department of City Planning, 1938 The first year has been one of great activity in public improve ment. During 1938 matters referred to the Commission by the Board of Estimate, received from other agencies or initiated by the Commission, numbered 738. A summary of such matters and the action taken on them is given on the following page. Plans for various projects were submitted by the Borough Presidents' offices, the Park Department and other agencies, but maps for advertising hearings and reports, based on inspections and studies of the Commission, were prepared by the Department. Much of this work was done under adverse conditions by a small engineering stafi, subject to continual pressure to conform to legal requirements as to time and procedure and in response to urgent demands of other branches of the city government. Many physical changes, including new thoroughfares, sewers, and street widen ings were expedited in preparation for the World's Fair of 1939.

Download or read book A History of Housing in New York City written by Richard Plunz and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its emergence in the mid-nineteenth century as the nation's "metropolis," New York has faced the most challenging housing problems of any American city, but it has also led the nation in innovation and reform. The horrors of the tenement were perfected in New York at the same time that the very rich were building palaces along Fifth Avenue; public housing for the poor originated in New York, as did government subsidies for middle-class housing. A standard in the field since its publication in 1992, A History of Housing in New York City traces New York's housing development from 1850 to the present in text and profuse illustrations. Richard Plunz explores the housing of all classes, with comparative discussion of the development of types ranging from the single-family house to the high-rise apartment tower. His analysis is placed within the context of the broader political and cultural development of New York City. This revised edition extends the scope of the book into the city's recent history, adding three decades to the study, covering the recent housing bubble crisis, the rebound and gentrification of the five boroughs, and the ecological issues facing the next generation of New Yorkers. More than 300 illustrations are integrated throughout the text, depicting housing plans, neighborhood changes, and city architecture over the past 130 years. This new edition also features a foreword by the distinguished urban historian Kenneth T. Jackson.
