• W2297416804 abstract "Dispersal and Contested Identity of an Imagined Journalistic Community Until early twentieth century, Park was synonymous with New York newspapers. Of newspapers that left Park Row, New York Times was notable for having established a geographic landmark that was identified with newspaper. In fact, by 1906, Times had replaced Park as a place for New Yorkers to get election night news or to celebrate New Year's Eve. Nevertheless, Times did not remain associated with its newspaper namesake, and today a successor to zipper is last physical reminder of paper's presence in this area of New York City. Drawing on Archives of New York Times Company, this article traces history of Times from construction of Times Tower through twentieth century as Times lost its identity as neighborhood's namesake. New Yorkers had never seen anything like it. On December 10, 1890, thousands were reported to have gathered for opening of city's tallest building, which was not just any building but The Greatest Building in World, according to a front-page headline in next day's edition of New York World? Designed by architect George P. Post, Pulitzer Building was, in fact, a grand monument to impor- tance of newspaper and its publisher, Joseph Pulitzer.2 Built on site of former French's Hotel, where Pulitzer was said to have been evicted as a younger man, new building's opening was celebrated with a lavish fireworks display and commemorated with an extensive and self-congratulatory souvenir supplement in following day's edition of World. So high was new building - 309 feet from street to top of building's lan- tern - that upon reaching Pulitzer's office in building's dome, one opening-day visitor famously inquired, Is God in?3 Pulitzer Building, first secular building in New York to surpass height of city's tallest church steeple, was at that moment crown jewel of Park Row, New York City street that was synonymous with journalism in nineteenth century.4 However, exalted and historic status of Newspaper Row was not to last: within a few years, newspapers would begin leaving neighborhood for disparate parts of Manhattan. left Park on August 20, 1 893, for a lavish building designed by Stanford White and inspired by Italy's Palazzo del Consiglio.5 Passersby in what became known as Herald Square would have taken notice of building, if not twenty-six large bronze owls (with lighted eyes) that publisher James Gordon Bennett, Jr. had ordered erected on top of building.6 New York Times followed suit, erecting a 380-foot tower a few blocks further uptown at Broadway and 42nd Street. By 1954, all of New York's newspapers would leave and many of their buildings also would disappear, leaving only memories of what writer Pete Hamill in 2004 called the vanished majesties of Park Row.7 Pulitzer Building fell to wrecker's ball in 1956 and neighboring Tribune Building - once hailed as world's first 'cathedral of commerce' - was demolished a decade later.8 only remnants of press' association with Park are statues of Benjamin Franklin and Tribune editor Horace Greeley. and Times briefly replaced Park as major landmarks associated with newspapers. Build- ing, shorn in 1921 of its owls, clocks, and bronze bell-ringers and then demolished, is now better known for neighboring Macy's department store.9 Similarly, Times Tower quickly proved inad- equate as a newspaper plant, and Times built a new plant on West 43rd Street in 1 9 1 3. If twentieth century was, as Aurora Wallace wrote in 2005, a time of and, as a result, one of diminishing influence for newspapers,10 that decline is now reflected in Times Square, where television and advertising - not newspapers - are preeminent. …" @default.
