CR #1:
I’m beginning this project with very little knowledge about preservation and how it relates to New York history. I already know that there will be different motives driving preservation, whether they are political, financial, or moral. This topic is important because our city is constantly changing and we want to document this change from the past, as well as capturing the city as it is right now. I am beginning this project with what I have learned about New York history in school, primarily from 10th grade history. Our meetings with Yukie have been incredibly helpful and deepened my understanding of the specifics of preservation and development, such as zoning laws and landmarking. We have also begun to discuss the various motives behind preservation, and how they have differed throughout history.
Despite all of this, I still have a lot to learn about the changes the city has undergone. Our second essential question asks what we can predict for the future. While we are answering our first question about what determines preservation, we will also begin to make these predictions. We need to explore zoning laws and the political motives that exist now and have existed in the past. Some other questions are how money and influence has shaped the city and what remains vs what is demolished.
