Executive Summary: Troy Waterfront Project in New York was conducted by the Temple University Senior Landscape Architecture Studio during spring semester 2015. The project involved a comprehensive study of Troy's Downtown Waterfront from Green Island Bridge and the City Marina to Congress Bridge. The purpose was to develop creative design alternatives for revitalizing the waterfront. Important to the design was the integration of principles green infrastructure and best management practices. Historically, in the 19th century, due to the working nature of the Hudson River, Troy's Waterfront has not always accessible to pedestrian and recreational activities. Today, Troy is experiencing a renaissance revival spurred by growing nanotechnology and other industry developments. With increased economic development, there is a resurgence of the area.Temple students enthusiastically took the challenge to develop creative sustainable design solutions for Troy's Waterfront. Working through the harsh winter of 2015, the students conducted a comprehensive design process. They researched relevant case studies to inform the design process and performed an extensive site inventory and analysis of the project site. Students examined Troy's history; geology and soils; topography and water systems; zoning and land use; vegetation; wind and solar patterns; vehicular and pedestrian circulation, parking, and transportation; views; site materials and furnishings; and demographics. Students evaluated the constraints and opportunities of the existing site characteristics in relation to the projected use of the site. They created final designs that accommodated the project goals and objectives. As designers, Temple students aimed to create designs that would aid the City of Troy with inspiring ideas as they move forward with the waterfront development in the future.

The Encyclopedia of New York State is one of the most complete works on the Empire State to be published in a half-century. In nearly 2,000 pages and 4,000 signed entries, this single volume captures the impressive complexity of New York State as a historic crossroads of people and ideas, as a cradle of abolitionism and feminism, and as an apex of modern urban, suburban, and rural life. The Encyclopedia is packed with fascinating details from fields ranging from sociology and geography to history. Did you know that Manhattan's Lower East Side was once the most populated neighborhood in the world, but Hamilton County in the Adirondacks is the least densely populated county east of the Mississippi; New York is the only state to border both the Great Lakes and the Atlantic Ocean; the Erie Canal opened New York City to rich farmland upstate . . . and to the west. Entries by experts chronicle New York's varied areas, politics, and persuasions with a cornucopia of subjects from environmentalism to higher education to railroads, weaving the state's diverse regions and peoples into one idea of New York State. Lavishly illustrated with 500 photographs and figures, 120 maps, and 140 tables, the Encyclopedia is key to understanding the state's past, present, and future. It is a crucial reference for students, teachers, historians, and business people, for New Yorkers of all persuasions, and for anyone interested in finding out more about New York State.

New York's unique and majestic canals stretch over 524 miles from Albany to Buffalo and between the southern tier counties of Tompkins and Schuyler to the Quebec border. While much has been written on the nation building Erie Canal of the nineteenth century, much less has covered the third iteration of the waterway, the New York State Barge Canal. Deemed a historic corridor by the Federal Parks system in 2000, the Empire State's canal system has been in continuous operation since 1825, longer than any other man made transportation system in North America. Author Susan P. Gateley reveals the history, beauty and present day state of New York State's grand canal system.

The life, time, and work of a renowned Albany potter comes vividly to life in these pages. Paul Cushman (1767-1833) is recognized today as one of the founders of a regional stoneware industry that stretched throughout the Upper Hudson Valley of New York State. When Cushman moved to Albany around 1800, local stoneware production was limited to a few potters. His decision to open a pottery works "half a mile west of the Albany Goal" at the beginning of the new century resulted in a long-lived and successful business. It also initiated a century of tremendous growth and expansion in regional stoneware manufacturing. The expert contributors to this volume reveal all that is currently known about the life and work of Paul Cushman, and place his business and pottery within broad and useful historical and aesthetic frameworks.
