| clinton hall financial district: Inside New York 2008 James R. Williams, 2008-05-27 Bookstores are filled with guides that tell you where to eat, where to shop, and what to see in New York, but can you really rely on their advice? In the interest of appealing to everyone, these guides recommend everything, regardless of whether the food, the stores, or the activities and events are actually worth your time and money. Written by actual New Yorkers who are committed to discovering the best the five boroughs have to offer, Inside New York provides a unique portal into our thrilling (and occasionally daunting) city. Compiled by a team of fearless students, the guide introduces the neighborhoods and nightlife that make New York truly unforgettable. Inside New York's young writers aggressively search for new trends, the hippest nightclubs, and the best deals. They also visit perennial favorites, offering fresh perspectives on museums, monuments, and iconic landmarks. Inside NY 2008 begins with an extensive city life section divided into such categories as public transportation, finding housing and jobs, eating out, locating the best hotels and hostels, classes and workshops, and LGBT events and resources. Then it breaks down the attractions, nightlife, restaurants, and shopping of seventeen Manhattan neighborhoods and four all-inclusive sections of the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, and Staten Island. Detailed color maps pinpoint each location. |

| clinton hall financial district: The House on Henry Street Lillian D. Wald, 2023-04-14 Nearly one hundred years after the Henry Street Settlement was founded, this venerable institution still serves the people of the lower East Side of New York. Much of the credit for its survival may be attributed to its founder, Lillian Wald, who is also the author of this book.The House on Henry Street was written at the height of the Progressive Era, when economic prosperity and an expansive spirit were pervasive, but when poverty and misery were the lot of countless new immigrants and families in urban areas. This book is the story of the early years of the Settlement and of the personal involvement of Lillian Wald in the social reform activities of the Settlement and the Progressive movements. From the first it was considered a significant work, and was widely and favorably reviewed. It remains significant.The story of the Henry Street Settlement is part of the history of New York City, as well as a key moment in the growth of social work in the United States. It is integrally related to the story of progressivism and social reform. Although the book's style is simple, it tells a complex story, both of one woman's indomitable nature, and of a special institution in a particular neighborhood of New York City. The House on Henry Street reflects the spirit of an optimistic era in which actors were part of larger social and political changes. It is also a history that moves easily from the personal, through the community, and finally to the national levels of American government. Professionals in the fields of volunteerism and philanthropy, progressivism, women's studies, and social welfare will find this an absorbing document. |

| clinton hall financial district: City of Sedition John Strausbaugh, 2016-08-02 In a single definitive narrative, City of Sedition tells the spellbinding story of the huge-and hugely conflicted-role New York City played in the Civil War. No city was more of a help to Abraham Lincoln and the Union war effort, or more of a hindrance. No city raised more men, money, and materiel for the war, and no city raised more hell against it. It was a city of patriots, war heroes, and abolitionists, but simultaneously a city of antiwar protest, draft resistance, and sedition. Without his New York supporters, it's highly unlikely Lincoln would have made it to the White House. Yet, because of the city's vital and intimate business ties to the Cotton South, the majority of New Yorkers never voted for him and were openly hostile to him and his politics. Throughout the war New York City was a nest of antiwar Copperheads and a haven for deserters and draft dodgers. New Yorkers would react to Lincoln's wartime policies with the deadliest rioting in American history. The city's political leaders would create a bureaucracy solely devoted to helping New Yorkers evade service in Lincoln's army. Rampant war profiteering would create an entirely new class of New York millionaires, the shoddy aristocracy. New York newspapers would be among the most vilely racist and vehemently antiwar in the country. Some editors would call on their readers to revolt and commit treason; a few New Yorkers would answer that call. They would assist Confederate terrorists in an attempt to burn their own city down, and collude with Lincoln's assassin. Here in City of Sedition, a gallery of fascinating New Yorkers comes to life, the likes of Horace Greeley, Walt Whitman, Julia Ward Howe, Boss Tweed, Thomas Nast, Matthew Brady, and Herman Melville. This book follows the fortunes of these figures and chronicles how many New Yorkers seized the opportunities the conflict presented to amass capital, create new industries, and expand their markets, laying the foundation for the city's-and the nation's-growth.

| clinton hall financial district: The Siege at Jutland The Siege at Jutland, 2014-02 ...Meanwhile, Jim with the help of his sister, made his way into Timothy's house. There, on the kitchen floor, Beatrice and Tim cleaned Jim's wound, applied a blue stone solution as a disinfectant and some salve and wrapped the wound with a muslin bandage as best they could. Unbeknownst to the Meaneys, Trooper Larsen had returned to Jutland with Corporal Matthew Daly and Trooper William Lang. Tim and Beatrice continued to tend to Jim's wound in the kitchen, re-bandaging it after Jim said he would wait until morning to go to the doctor. It was between nine thirty and ten o'clock at night when they heard a terrific crash at the middle door, by the dining room. Tim got up to investigate when he suddenly saw a flash of light and heard gun shots and breaking glass. Without warning or provocation, the Troopers at Lieutenant Daniel Rogers' orders opened fire on the farmhouse. The first shots had been fired. The siege had begun! |
