Abstract:
Recently, derelict artifacts of the industrial age such as railroad tracks and gantry cranes have emerged as prominent aesthetic features in New York City’s newest parks. This article documents and analyzes this new practice of historic preservation in three new parks, including the internationally acclaimed High Line. Socioeconomic data confirm that these industrial-themed parks exist in neighborhoods marked by dramatic postindustrial change. I argue that the trends are interrelated: that is, the injection of industrial remains into the city’s cultural and symbolic landscape not only represen

In the context of global warming, the study of the resilient city and resilient landscape has received more and more attention. In this work, New York is used as an example to explore the practical applications of storm surge adaptive landscape infrastructure. The vulnerability of New York in storm surges and New York’s plans for resilient city construction are introduced. Then according to the spatial distribution, through field research, questionnaires and data integration, the landscape infrastructure cases of beaches, waterfront parks, inland parks, nature areas and streets are studied, an

This article raises the issue of setting up and developing urban parks on islands which are situated around New York’s borough of Manhattan. Among the principal consequences are an improved balance of developed green spaces in the city and the emergence of attractive public places with a variety of functions and high-quality design solutions. As for the urban landscape, interesting relations are created with respect to views of the unique silhouette of the city, and in particular of Manhattan.

Abstract:
Lyme disease, the leading vector-borne ailment in the U.S., annually affects an estimated 476,000 individuals, predominantly in the Northeast and Upper Midwest. Despite its increasing incidence, the evaluation of risk within U.S. cities, including natural public lands, remains inadequate. This study focuses on blacklegged tick occurrences and Borrelia burgdorferi infection prevalence in 24 Staten Island parks, aiming to assess Lyme disease exposure risk.

Abstract:
After decades of cuts to federal funding, cities were left with few resources for public services, particularly parks and open spaces. Current trends of massive gentrification in New York City are changing the housing market and other components of the private sector. In addition to altering socio-spatial dynamics in the housing and consumer markets, gentrification can alter public spaces as well. By comparing three New York City neighborhoods at different stages of gentrification, I analyzed socio-spatial dynamics, public and private funding, event programming, and ethnographically observed c

One mitigation effort involves expanding green infrastructure and alleviating urban ecological challenges by building in cooperation with ecological processes. Cities are investing in large-scale green infrastructure projects such as urban parks, bioswales (roadside plantings), and green roofs. Recently, scientists have begun to explore the ecological principles that govern the assembly and long-term performance of rooftop communities. In Fall 2

Moses simultaneously held multiple public-sector positions that gave him enormous power over public works projects in the New York metropolitan area. During the four years and eight months of the O'Dwyer administration, O'Dwyer and Moses convinced New Yorkers, the media, and even state legislators that the city would soon begin building a Second Avenue subway.

Abstract Standing before the stony panorama of New York City’s concrete skyscrapers and asphalt streets, the average New Yorker would be surprised to learn that fully one-sixth of the city is public parkland and that a larger portion of its land is reserved for parks than in any other large American city. (See Tables 14.1 and 14.2.) In fact, the average share devoted to local parks among the nation’s largest cities is only about 6 percent, less than half the equivalent figure for New York City.

Abstract Calvert Vaux (1824-1895) fervently advocated the power of art to refine and elevate the human spirit. An accomplished architect and landscape architect, he believed that wellplanned, picturesque buildings and naturalistically laid-out parks and grounds enhanced the lives of all who used them. After a six-year period in Newburgh, New York, where he settled in 1850 following his training as an architect in his native England, Vaux established himself in New York City. He would practice there for the next 40 years. During this long career, he designed houses for men of wealth as well as

Abstract:
This chapter examines the decline and subsequent revitalization of major parks through their control by public–private partnerships in the late twentieth century. The extensive private sector involvement in parks was far from the elite-initiated takeover that has been depicted. In contrast, this shift dates back to community residents’ organizing in the late 1960s and 1970s to revive degenerating greenspaces that had suffered municipal neglect. What first began as community park revitalization efforts in neighborhoods throughout New York spread to initiatives that involved broader elements of

The prominence and scale of the initiative led to major organizational changes in the two core partners. They both garnered and expended massive amounts of financial and human resources in the planting of a million trees. Counting the number of trees planted was cent
