I am complaining about HPD's plans for the Cooper Square URA and Parsons,
Inc., seeming complicity in the review process. The public hearings were
held in October of so of 2001 which I watched. HPD's site states: "HPD
released a Request For Proposals for the development of four sites in the
area on March 6, 2000 (Press Release). In July 2000, HPD designated Chrystie
Venture Partners as the development team for the project (Press Release).
Chrystie Venture Partners' plan includes the construction of approximately
712 mixed-income housing units (75% market rate/25% affordable), a 30,000
sq. ft. community recreational facility, and approximately 150,000 square
feet of commercial/retail space. Opportunities also exist for additional
cultural, community facility, and commercial/retail development on the
development sites. Construction is expected to begin in 2002. New Yorkers
interested in apartments in the the Cooper Square development should contact
the developer, Avalon Bay Communities, at (212) 309- 2990 and ask to be put
on the mailing list for applications once they become available." I worked
for Parsons, Inc. 110 William St., 13th floor who contracted with me and an
associate to do the background history for an archaeological evaluation of
the sites in the "Cooper Square Urban Renewal" submitted in August 2000.
Just recently I was asked to work again for them and received a copy of the
edited (in Virginia) report. Very important heritage facts and information
were left out of the evaluation. How can the HPD advertize for housing on a
Landmarks Preservation issue development before public hearings have been
heard? Just as background these are some of the historical facts left out:
the current standing building, once "Steuben House" which may have contained
National Guard veterans who were involved in both the "draft riots" and the
defense of Washington, DC during the American Civil War, and currently an
artists building including noted feminist Kate Millet, also site of
"McGuirks Suicide Bar" next door to "Germania Hall" which besides its
somewhat obvious meaning from its name, once elected Kate Mullaney of Troy,
NY to a labor union position the first ever, and where Susan B. Anthony also
attended the same meeting.
Your work was in the bibliography and seems to be the reason much was left
out.

Fellow Histarchers:
About six weeks ago, I put out a request over Histarch for references to the
