SUMMARY:Hamilton and Washington in New York City
DESCRIPTION:In this lecture\, Thomas Balcerski will discuss New York City as the capital of the nation\, beginning in 1785 under the Articles of Confederation Congress. Despite debates over whether the capital should be relocated\, the first Congress determined to meet there in March 1789\, and the first inauguration of an American President happened there in April of the same year. Balcerski reviews the many sites associated with the early capital\, between 1785 and 1790\, and considers their significance to later developments in the new government\, as well as how the legacy of this important history has been largely forgotten today.

SUMMARY:Defiance in Connecticut: “When Southbury Said No”
DESCRIPTION:On October 1\, 1937\, Wolfgang Jung purchased 178 acres of land in Southbury\, Connecticut for the German-American Bund to build a Nazi camp. The residents of Southbury fought back against this Nazi invasion of their town. Organized by the Reverend M.E.N. Lindsay\, the Reverend Felix Manley\, and town leaders\, the townspeople established a zoning commission whose first ordinance forbade land usage in the town for “military training or drilling with or without arms except by the legally constituted armed forces of the United States of America.” The ruling effectively closed Southbury to the Bund. The Museum and the Jewish Federation of Western Connecticut join together to explore this remarkable story. Join us for a discussion between Rebecca Erbelding\, historian\, archivist\, and curator at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum; Ed Edelson\, former First Selectman of Southbury and the author of Lois’s Story: A Young Girl’s Inspiration Helps to Stop Hate and Fear; Arnie Bernstein\, author of Swastika Nation: Fritz Kuhn & the Rise and Fall of the German-American Bund; and Melinda K. Elliott\, president of the Southbury Historical Society\, moderated by Rabbi Eric Polokoff\, founding Rabbi of B’nai Israel of Southbury.  The program will be accompanied by a virtual screening of the documentary Home of the Brave: When Southbury Said No to the Nazis. Registrants will receive a private link to stream the film one week before the program.

SUMMARY:THE MILLS BUILDING: Skyscraper Construction in New York City in the Early 1880s
DESCRIPTION:In a coda to the four-part Construction History series led by Thomas Leslie and Donald Friedman\, the Museum adds a special lecture by ALEXANDER WOOD that will focus on George. B. Post’s Mills Building\, completed in 1882. One of the earliest and largest office blocks in the Wall Street financial district\, the 10-story Mills Building\, at the corner of Broad Street and Exchange Place\, offers a perfect case study of the issues raised in the series. The lecture draws on Wood’s research for his recent dissertation at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Architecture\, Planning and Preservation\, “Building the Metropolis: Architecture\, Building\, and Labor in New York City\, 1880-1935.” The construction of tall buildings in New York in the late 19th century transformed the business of building. Wood will explore how architects\, general contractors\, and subcontractors organized construction to meet the needs of speculative real estate development and worked together to build more efficiently within a congested urban environment. Using new construction methods\, techniques\, and equipment\, a new generation of professionals\, manufacturers\, and contractors became major players in the city’s building industry for decades to come.

SUMMARY:Book Launch: Six Walks by Ben Shattuck in conversation with Jenny Slate
DESCRIPTION:On an autumn morning in 1849\, Henry David Thoreau stepped out his front door to walk the beaches of Cape Cod. Over a century and a half later\, Ben Shattuck does the same. With little more than a loaf of bread\, brick of cheese\, and a notebook\, Shattuck sets out to retrace Thoreau’s path through the Cape’s outer beaches\, from the elbow to Provincetown’s fingertip. This is the first of six journeys taken by Shattuck\, each one inspired by a walk once taken by Henry David Thoreau. After the Cape\, Shattuck goes up Mount Katahdin and Mount Wachusett\, down the coastline of his hometown\, and then through the Allagash. Along the way\, Shattuck encounters unexpected characters\, landscapes\, and stories\, seeing for himself the restorative effects that walking can have on a dampened spirit. Over years of following Thoreau\, Shattuck finds himself uncovering new insights about family\, love\, friendship\, and fatherhood\, and understanding more deeply the lessons walking can offer through life’s changing seasons.

SUMMARY:American Urbanist: How William H. Whyte’s Unconventional Wisdom Reshaped Public Life
DESCRIPTION:Webinar. In what the New York Times review calls a “marvelous new biography\,” journalist Richard K. Rein chronicles the life of William H. Whyte\, one of the most influential writers and analysts of American cities and society in the second half of the twentieth century. From his bestselling\, seminal book The Organization Man of 1956\, to the revelatory The Social Life of Small Urban Spaces of 1980\, “Holly” Whyte’s work changed how people thought about careers and companies\, cities and suburbs\, urban planning and open space preservation. Whyte’s keen eye for urban observation and clear\, insightful writing on human behavior in public space\, both preceded and enabled the voice of Jane Jacobs to burst forth in print in the 1960s\, first as her editor at Fortune\, then as an instrumental figure in the publication of Death and Life of Great American Cities. Somewhat eclipsed by the subsequent fame of Jacobs – especially today – the influence of Holly Whyte on now several generations of urban designers does earn him the description of Rein’s title\, “American Urbanist: How William H. Whyte’s Unconventional Wisdom Reshaped Public Life.”

SUMMARY:“Nazi Billionaires” Book Talk
