LOCATION
OF NEW YORK
The city of New York is placed on
the coast East of the United States of North America, bathed by the Atlantic
Ocean in which there ends the river Hudson that crosses the whole state. It
borders on the West on New Jersey, to the Northwest Connecticut and to the
South-east on Long Island. The city gives name to the state which capital is
Albany. Until 1898 the city was formed only by Manhattan to the which they
joined the same year the counties of Kings (Brooklyn), Queens, Bronx and
Richmond (Staten Island).
MANHATTAN
Manhattan (Mannahatta) or island of the
hills as his indigenous vocabulary, it measures 21.5 kilometres of length and
3.7 of breadth and is the district of more importance of the five that compose
the city. Manhattan is divided in three sectors:
Downtown or Under Manhattan,
in the south end of the island, it spreads from Battery Park up to the street
14 and is the most ancient part of the city. On her the towers of Financial
District rise where Stock Exchange or Stock Exchange of New York is the New
York. This part of Manhattan meets formed by quarters or local communities all
of them own personality as Chinatown, Little Italy, Soho, Tribeca or Greenwich
Village.
Midtown or central part, includes from
the street 14 59 and is the most tourist zone of Manhattan and where there
centers most of the symbols of New York. Empire State Building, Chrysler
Building, UNO, Rockefeller Center, Terminal Grand Central or the theatrical
district of Broadway, are someone of the points most visited of New York and
that are in this part of the city. In contrast to Under Manhattan, the streets
of Midtown are perfectly designed in the shape of great squared pattern. To get
lost on this part of the city is rather difficult, since the streets are
numbered of south to north and the avenues of East on West. The Fifth Avenue divides the city in two big
sectors: East and West. Broadway is the only avenue that crosses the city in
diagonal.
Uptown is the north part of
Manhattan from the street 59. Upper East Side is, with difference, the most
wealthy local community of New York. Metropolitan Museum of Art, Guggenheim
Museum and Withney Museum they are three of the most important museums of the
city that are in this part of Manhattan. On the west we meet Natural American
Museum of History, Lincoln Center and the cathedral St. John The Divine. Along
the north rim of Uptown one finds Harlem occupied in his great majority by
citizens of African American origin. In the extreme East of Harlem the Hispanic
predominates in so called Spanish over Harlem, occupied mainly by citizens
Puertorriqueños.
BROOKLYN
Brooklyn is the most populated district of
New York. He is to the South-west of Long Island and his name owes him to the
Dutch people Breukelen. From 1883, with the opening of the bridge of Brooklyn
(the whole symbol of the city) this district lives in the shade of Manhattan.
To the East and close to the Brooklyn Bridge one finds the historical and calm
quarter of Brooklyn Heights, characterized, besides, for offering some of the
most spectacular sights of Manhattan. To the North there is Williamsburg, a
modern quarter in which there coexist different cultures, innumerable galleries
of art, shops and hearth of many artists. In other quarters like Flabush and
Midwood, there is the biggest community of the world of orthodox Jews out of
Israel. DUMBO (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass) it is the quarter of the most modern and
revolutionary artists attracted by low revenues.
Two
important museums are in Brooklyn. The Brooklyn Museum of Art is one of the
biggest of the United States with one of the most important Egyptian
collections of the world. Children's Museum was the first museum of the world
dedicated to the children. Coney Island, in the South end of Brooklyn, is the
amusement park of the city with his famous Russian mountain Cyclone.
The
Brooklyn Botanic Garden, it is undoubtedly the most exquisite botanical garden
of the city; Prospect Park, realized for them same designers of Head office
Park, and his small zoo, is the park most visited of Brooklyn; and the New York
Aquarium with his more than 300 marine species they complete the local list
more symbolic of this district
BRONX
The Bronx is placed to the North of the city
and is the only district that is part of the continent. His name derives from
the first settler of this part of the city in 1639, the Swedish Jonas Bronck.
The zone nearest to Manhattan, the South of the Bronx, is the the most decadent
and punished of the district. The rest of the Bronx is completamente
differently, possessing residential sure and elegant zones, and immense parks.
Wildlife Conservation Park or Bronx Zoo with 107 There is. and 6000 animals, it
is the biggest metropolitan zoo of the United States. Much nearby there is the
New York Botanical Garden that possesses an elegant flora and fauna in his 40
acres of forest. In the South of the Bronx there is Yankee Stadium, head office
of the team of baseball NY Yankees, from 1923
QUENS
Placed
to the Northwest of Long Island, it is a question of the biggest district of
New York. Queens was baptized this way in 1683, in honor to the queen Catherine
de Braganza, wife of Carlos II of England. This district is considered to be
the bedroom of New York. Occupied in most cases by typical houses unifamiliares
made of wood, it possesses a great ethnic diversity.
The
Museum for African Art, the only museum of the country dedicated to the art and
African culture; the New York Entrance hall of Science, the only museum of
science and technology of the city; Queens Museum of Art with his impressive
mock-up to scale of New York; and the museums of contemporary art P.S.1
Contemporary Art Center and modern art.MoMA QNS, is the cultural symbols of Queens.
Flushing
Meadows - Crown Park, it is the park with the most finished sports complex and
of attractions of the city, from that they distinguish Shea Stadium of the team
of baseball NY Mets and the USTA National Tennis Center, place in which Open of
tennis celebrates the US.
Two of
three airports which the city possesses are in Quenns. The international
airport John F. Kennedy placed on the South of the district, in Jamaica; and
the national airport LaGuardia, to the North, in Jackson Heights.
SATEN
ISLAND
To this
calm district it is possible to accede day and night free on board of Staten
Island Ferry offering wonderful conference of Manhattan and of the Statue of
the Freedom. Jacques Marchais Museum of Tibetan Art with the biggest collection
of objects Buddhists of the world out of the Tibet; and the Garibaldi - Meucci
Museum place where there lived Italian Antonio Meucci, the real inventor of the
phone, are two of jewelry whom Staten Island possesses

(This is an initial suggestion, originally written the
on Sept 11 2001 (with some minor subsequent changes) on one possible reason for
failure, and should not be regarded as official advice.)

After the initial plane impacts, it appeared to most
observers that the structure had been severely damaged, but not necessarily
fatally. It appears likely that the impact of the plane crash
destroyed a significant number of perimeter columns on several floors of the
building, severely weakening the entire system. Initially this was not
enough to cause collapse. However, as fire raged in the upper floors, the heat
would have been gradually affecting the behaviour of the remaining
material. As the planes had only recently taken off, the fire would
have been initially fuelled by large volumes of jet fuel, creating
potentially enormously high temperatures. While the fire would not have been
hot enough to melt any of the steel, the strength of the steel drops markedly
with prolonged exposure to fire, while the elastic modulus of the steel
reduces (stiffness drops), increasing deflections. |
|
It is possible that the blaze, started by jet fuel
and then engulfing the contents of the offices, in a highly confined area,
generated fire conditions significantly more severe than those anticipated in
a typical office fire. These conditions may have overcome the
building's fire defences considerably faster than expected. It is
likely that the water pipes that supplied the fire sprinklers were severed by
the plane impact, and much of the fire protective material, designed to stop
the steel from being heated and losing strength, was blown off by the blast
at impact. Eventually, the loss of strength and stiffness of
the materials resulting from the fire, combined with the initial impact
damage, would have caused a failure of the truss system supporting a
floor, or the remaining perimeter columns, or even the internal core, or some
combination. Failure of the flooring system would have subsequently
allowed the perimeter columns to buckle outwards. Regardless of which
of these possibilities actually occurred, it would have resulted in the
complete collapse of at least one complete storey at the level of impact. Once one storey collapsed all floors above would
have begun to fall. The huge mass of falling structure would gain
momentum, crushing the structurally intact floors below, resulting in
catastrophic failure of the entire structure. While the columns at say
level 50 were designed to carry the static load of 50 floors above,
once one floor collapsed and the floors above started to fall, the dynamic
load of 50 storeys above is very much greater, and the columns were almost
instantly destroyed as each floor progressively "pancaked" to the
ground. (US readers note: storey is the
Australian/English spelling of story) |
Sydney Morning Herald
graphic adapted from
the information on this page.
The only evidence so far are photographs and
television footage. Whether failure was initiated at the perimeter
columns or the core is unknown. The extent to which the internal parts
were damaged during the collision may be evident in the rubble if any forensic
investigation is conducted. Since the mass of the combined towers
is close to 1000000 tons, finding evidence will be an enormous task.
Perimeter columns, several storeys high, and still
linked together, lie amongst all the debris on the ground.
This photograph shows the south tower just as it is
collapsing. It is evident that the building is falling over to the
left. The North Tower collapsed directly downwards, on top of
itself. The same mechanism of failure, the combination of impact and
subsequent fire damage, is the likely cause of failure of both towers.
However, it is possible that a storey on only one side of the South Tower
initially collapsed, resulting in the "skewed" failure of the entire
tower.
While the ways the two towers fell were slightly
different, the basic cause is similar for both - a large number of columns were
destroyed on impact, and the remaining structure was gradually weakened by the
heat of the fire. Not much significance should be taken from the fact
that one tower fell in 45 minutes and the other in 90 minutes.
The gigantic dynamic impact forces caused by the huge
mass of the falling structure landing on the floors below is very much greater
than the static load they were designed to resist.
New york’s mayor

A BIOGRAPHY OF |
|
In 1944, Rudolph W. Giuliani was born to a working class family in Brooklyn,
New York. As the grandson of Italian immigrants, Mayor Giuliani learned a
strong work ethic and a deep respect for America's ideal of equal opportunity.
He attended Bishop Loughlin Memorial High School (Class of '61) in Brooklyn,
Manhattan College (Class of '65) in the Bronx and New York University Law
School in Manhattan, graduating magna cum laude in 1968.
Upon graduation, Rudy
Giuliani clerked for Judge Lloyd MacMahon, United States District Judge for the
Southern District of New York. In 1970, Giuliani joined the office of the U.S.
Attorney. At age 29, he was named Chief of the Narcotics Unit and rose to serve
as executive US Attorney. In 1975, Giuliani was recruited to Washington, D.C.,
where he was named Associate Deputy Attorney General and chief of staff to the
Deputy Attorney General. From 1977 to 1981, Giuliani returned to New York to
practice law at Patterson, Belknap, Webb and Tyler.
In 1981, Giuliani was named
Associate Attorney General, the third highest position in the Department of
Justice. As Associate Attorney General, Giuliani supervised all of the US
Attorney Offices' Federal law enforcement agencies, the Bureau of Corrections,
the Drug Enforcement Agency, and the US Marshals.
In 1983, Giuliani was
appointed US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, where he
spearheaded the effort to jail drug dealers, fight organized crime, break the
web of corruption in government, and prosecute white-collar criminals. Few US
Attorneys in history can match his record of 4,152 convictions with only 25
reversals.
In 1989, Giuliani entered
the race for mayor of New York City as a candidate of the Republican and Liberal
parties, losing by the closest margin in City history. However in 1993, his
campaign focusing on quality of life, crime, business and education made him
the 107th Mayor of the City of New York. In 1997 he was re-elected by a wide
margin, carrying four out of New York City's five boroughs.
As Mayor, Rudy Giuliani has
returned accountability to City government and improved the quality of life for
all New Yorkers. Under his leadership, overall crime is down 57%, murder has
been reduced 65%, and New York City - once infamous around the world for its
dangerous streets - has been recognized by the F.B.I. as the safest large city
in America for the past five years.
New York City's law
enforcement strategies have become models for other cities around the world, particularly
the CompStat program, which won the 1996 Innovations in Government Award from
the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. CompStat allows police
to statistically monitor criminal activity on specific street corners as well
as citywide, holding precinct commanders accountable for criminal activity in
their neighborhoods. Because this data is updated constantly, it enables the
police to become a proactive force in fighting crime, stopping crime trends
before they become crime waves that negatively effect the quality of life for
neighborhood residents.
When Mayor Giuliani took
office, one out of every seven New Yorkers was on welfare. Mayor Giuliani has
returned the work ethic to the center of City life by implementing the largest
and most successful welfare-to-work initiative in the country, cutting welfare
rolls in half while moving over 640,000 individuals from dependency on the
government to the dignity of self-sufficiency. In addition, Giuliani has
enacted a record of over $2.5 billion in tax reductions - including the
commercial rent tax, personal income tax, the hotel occupancy tax, and the
sales tax on clothing for purchases up to $110 dollars. In addition, hundreds
of millions of dollars have been returned to the private sector as a result of
the Mayor's aggressive campaign to root out organized crime's influence over
the Fulton Fish Market, the private garbage hauling industry, and wholesale
food markets throughout the City. These reforms, combined with the fiscal
discipline which enabled the Mayor to turn an inherited $2.3 billion dollar
budget deficit into a multi-billion dollar surplus, have led the City to an era
of broad-based growth with a record 450,000 new private sector jobs created in
the past seven years. As news of the City's resurgence has spread around the
nation and the world, tourism has grown to record levels.
Mayor Giuliani is committed
to nurturing and empowering New York City's children. By creating the
Administration for Children's Services, New York City now has an accountable,
proactive and effective protector for our City's most vulnerable children that
is recognized as a national model. Moreover, New York City is working everyday
to find loving families for children requiring adoption. The City has completed
a record number of adoptions since 1996 - more than 20,000 - marking a dramatic
65% increase over the previous six-year period. Mayor Giuliani has also been a
leader in getting health insurance to children through the innovative
HealthStat initiative, which uses computer technology to coordinate a citywide
effort to enroll children in existing health insurance programs. To date,
96,000 eligible children and families have been given access to health
insurance through the HealthStat initiative. These improvements have increased
hope and opportunity for all New York City's children and laid the foundation
for our City to be even stronger in the 21st century.
To turn around the nation's
largest urban public education system, Giuliani has worked tirelessly to restore
accountability and raise standards throughout the City's schools.
Student-teacher ratios are at an all-time low, while the annual operating
budget for New York City's public schools has increased from $8 billion to $12
billion. Bureaucratic roadblocks to meaningful reform such as social promotion
and principal tenure have ended, while programs such as bilingual education and
special education have been reformed for the first time in a quarter century.
Under the Mayor's leadership, New York City has introduced innovative new
instructional programs that improve reading skills, give all students access to
computers, and restore arts education as a fundamental part of the school
curriculum. In the past year, these successful education initiatives have been
accompanied by the establishment of 300-book libraries in every classroom and
weekend classes for science and English instruction. In October 2000, the Mayor
launched the New York City Charter School Improvement Fund, the first fund ever
offered by a city government to help charter schools with equipment and
facilities costs. The fund is the most recent example of the Mayor's commitment
to both providing quality educational alternatives to all City families,
regardless of their income, and to spurring the New York City public schools to
improve through competition.
Under Rudy Giuliani's
leadership, New York City has become the best-known example of the resurgence
of urban America. From his success at cleaning up Times Square and other public
spaces around the City to closing the Fresh Kills landfill on Staten Island,
Mayor Giuliani has worked tirelessly to pass New York to the next generation
better and more beautiful than it was before he entered office.
New York has established
itself as the City others look toward when they want to study the most
innovative strategies for reducing crime, reforming welfare, encouraging
economic growth, and improving the overall quality of life. In the past decade,
New York City's population has reached a record 8 million residents, confirming
that New York is again a City on the rise, full of optimism and confidence that
its best days are still ahead of it.
