URBAN OMNIBUSARCHITECTURENEIGHBORHOODINFRASTRUCTURELANDSCAPEPOLICYARTS Grassroots groups have kept organic waste collection alive in neighborhoods across New York City during a most difficult year. For community composters, the stakes of an equitable waste system stretch far beyond the pile.

THE BERGEN FAMILY OWNED 46 PEOPLE The family of 19th century congressman Teunis G. Bergen, for whom the eponymous street is named, owned at least 46 people in 1810.

Co-naming a street is an increasingly popular way for ELECTCHESTER: A CITY MADE FOR WORKERS Electchester, in short, is an estate meant for those workers without whom the city would be, quite literally, stuck in the dark.

ARCHITECTS OF BLACK HARLEM Roberta Washington — one of the few Black woman architects based in Harlem — was the architect behind the iconic porches’ restoration in the 1990s. Their revival attests to the resilience of Harlem’s Black community. Astor Row, once again a “ Front-Porch Block ,” is sought after by a new demographic of Harlem residents. WHERE ARE THE PUBLIC BATHROOMS IN NEW YORK CITY? Bryant Park hosts one of the most renowned public bathrooms in New York City, opened in 1934 and renovated in 1988 (and again in 2017). Maintenance costs for the bathroom are $271,000 annually, including $27,000 for single-ply toilet paper, $14,160 for fresh flowers, and $25-$30k in annual salaries for staff.

A WALK TO THE OLD FULTON FISH MARKET WITH ROBERT LAVALVA RLA: There is a book called The Market Book, a history of New York markets from Dutch times through the 1860s, written by a public market butcher named Thomas DeVoe, that became a guide for me.I learned the Essex Market actually traces its roots back to 1818, and the Fulton Market back to 1822, and there had been a Washington Market where the World Trade Center now stands.

DUE PROCESS AND THE ENCLOSURE OF JUSTICE Due Process and the Enclosure of Justice. The Virginia State Capitol Building, completed in 1789, designed by Thomas Jefferson together with French architect Charles-Louis Clérisseau, became the standard model for courthouse design in the antebellum period and remains the iconic popular representation of the administration of justice to this

day.

LAYERS OF HISTORY: THE ORCHARD BEACH PAVILION The scale and ambition of the Orchard Beach project, embodied in the Pavilion, seems unthinkable today. But its evocative style is a tangible reminder of the period — this was the 1930s and this is what public buildings looked like. It has an unmistakable symbolic

But its evocative style is a tangible reminder of the period — this was the 1930s and this is what public buildings looked like. It has an unmistakable symbolic

resonance.
