Title A name given to the resource Bloomingdale Conservation Project articles Subject The topic of the resource The Bloomingdale Conservation Project, 1959-1964 Description An account of the resource In the Bloomingdale Neighborhood History Group's files, we have a red folder of newspaper clippings about the Bloomingdale Conservation Project, created by Ginger Lief. Most of the clippings are from the New York Times, and those articles are fairly easy to find online through the New York Times's Archives (see links below). There are also a few articles from what seem to be local papers no longer in existence, which we have scanned for you and posted here. The Bloomingdale Conservation Project was a counterpoint to the "urban renewal" projects which had just razed a large swath of the Upper West Side. It was an effort to improve conditions between 96th Street and 104th Street west of Amsterdam Avenue without tearing down the buildings and removing the residents.

We hope to learn more about the publications and will update this entry if we do.

Title A name given to the resource History of the Bloomingdale Branch of the New York Public Library, by Susan Singer Subject The topic of the resource The history of the Bloomingdale Branch of the New York Public Library. Description An account of the resource These are librarian Susan Singer's notes for a talk she gave to the Park West Neighborhood History Group, later renamed Bloomingdale Neighborhood History Group. Though Ms. Singer has first-hand knowledge of the branch's history, having worked there for many years, she chose to focus on her research of the early precursors of the NYPL system, as well as the early history of the Bloomingdale branch, particularly as reflected in the annual reports of Ms. Emily McCormick, up to the year 1961, when the branch moved into its current building, after which Ms. McCormick retired. Ms Singer's notes are fascinating, detailed, beautifully written, and will be of wider interest because much of the history of the area is reflected in the library's history.
