The six-story base of the headquarters building was commissioned by the founder, William Randolph Hearst and awarded to the architect Joseph Urban. The building was completed in 1928 at a cost of $2 million and contained 40,000 square feet (3,700 m2). The original cast stone facade has been preserved in the new design as a designated Landmark site. Originally built as the base for a proposed skyscraper, the construction of the tower was postponed due to the Great Depression. The new tower addition was completed nearly eighty years later, and 2,000 Hearst employees moved in on 26 June 2006.
Hearst Tower was the first skyscraper to break ground in New York City after September 11, 2001.
The Maine Monument stands at the entrance to the Park at Merchants' Gate, named by the Commissioners of Central Park in 1862 to honor commerce and business professions for their important contribution to New York City.
The monument commemorates the 260 American sailors who perished when the battleship Maine exploded in the harbor of Havana, Cuba, then under Spanish rule. It is still unclear what caused the explosion on February 15, 1898, but Spain declared war on the United States by April 1898. The treaty, which ended the war in December 1898, freed Cuba from Spanish dominion, ceded Puerto Rico and Guam and surrendered the Philippines to the United States.
Four days after the Maine went down, newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst's New York Morning Journal called for a public collection for a monument to honor the sailors. Over the course of several years, the newspaper received large monetary gifts as well as thousands of dollars in pennies collected from schoolchildren.
The gilded bronze figures atop the pylon represent Columbia Triumphant leading a seashell chariot of three hippocampi — part horse, part sea-creature and are said to be cast from metal recovered from the guns of the Maine itself. The figures reflect America's new position as a dominant world force just as the imposing Beaux-Arts structure symbolizes America's bold and grandiose domination of territories.
In 1995, the Central Park Conservancy regilded the figure. Conservancy sculptors carved new pieces for missing part of the monument, and the stone was cleaned, repainted, and pigeon-proofed. In 1997, the Conservancy restored Merchant’s Gate and its surrounding landscape, transforming it into an inviting public plaza.

iamakittehcouch: @skybluepinkphotography How's Clive's accent? Is the "American French" opening doors for you?
iamakittehcouch: @brian_eph @thebrightdark @mlturbin @visual_mood_swings @orangeskie Thank you! I've been loving everyone's vsco posts but was never very successful with it. I'm pretty stoked about this one, so very much appreciate the good words ✨✨

Exodus 2.5 aka All ur Pics r Belong to Us! Well I'm relieved to hear that merely our likenesses will be used to hawk brands (or something like). I recall opting out of that years ago on FB. I love you guys but quite frankly I don't care for you to know that I "like" Fresh Step Kitty Litter and I'm sure you don't really want to know, lol! #hipstaedit #aroundthehood #parkslope #Brooklyn #iamakittehcouch #streetphotography #hubstreet #sidewalkstories #bw #tina_bw #BWoftheDay #streetphoto_bw #hubbw #bwphotoshoot #bwlovers #monoart #bws_worldwide #streetwalker_069 #bws_artist_usa #AMPt #wearejuxt #thepublicimage #made_in_ny #ignyc #ic_cities #insta_nyc #shootermag #the_corporation #theminimals

kittycaster: Oh you like fresh step? We're an arm & hammer family. Pfffft.
iamakittehcouch: @kittycaster Huh, I thought I replied to this. Actually my kittehs prefer Everclean Premium Clumping brand litter. You know, for the discerning cat
kittycaster: I've had to delete and repost pics the last couple of days because it would post it without my caption. I hate how wonky IG has been.
kittycaster: Oh, and I think Buddy prefers Mother Nature's Brand real earth litter
iamakittehcouch: @kittycaster My old cat Spartacus never quite got the routine down. He would use the litter box but wouldn't dig in the sand. He'd drag whatever was nearby to cover it up!
minkxxx: Thanks Kitteh! Yes I've heard there has been a "misunderstanding" about ownership of images. The policy does say we retain our image rights. My understanding is that they're going to have advertising on IG. Not own & use our photos. Anyhoo... Love this image mate. You are way too good with the right tools in your hand. That sounds dirty don't it?!?! Ok it's in the Gutter! Beautiful image. Love your b & w's. Love the sun rays. XX mink
Once an orphanage, the Dublin House was opened as a #speakeasy in 1921. In 1933 after Prohibition ended, the iconic neon harp sign was installed. The bar remained family-owned and operated for the next 85 years. Dublin House's main bartender for 16 years then took over in 2006. Open daily from 8am to 4am, noon on Sundays. Located on West 79th Street between Broadway & Amsterdam. Taken March 24, 2012 with my old #3GS.
