Tourist in Your Own Town #49 - Park Avenue Armory
The Park Avenue Armory is located at 643 Park Avenue and 66th Street in Manhattan. Watch our video to learn more about this historic building and then plan a visit.
The prominent landmark was built from 1877 to 1881 for the Seventh National Guard Regiment. The medieval-inspired building became a prototype for later armories in New York and throughout the country. The design came from Charles W. Clinton, a Seventh Regiment veteran. He included a large drill shed measuring 200 by 300 feet and 80 feet high. It is one of the largest unobstructed spaces in New York and the oldest balloon shed in the United States.
The Armory is now a venue for cultural events and educational programming run by the Thompson Arts Center who offer regular public tours of the building. Designated a City Landmark in 1967 with interior spaces added in 1994, the Park Avenue Armory has been hailed as containing the single most important collection of 19th-century interiors to survive intact in one building. See the magnificent rooms designed by leaders of the Aesthetic Movement, among them Louis Comfort Tiffany, Stanford White, Candace Wheeler, and the Herter Brothers.

Touro Synagogue
07.20.2017
Rhode Island
A federal appeals court in Boston has decided the fate of the nation’s oldest synagogue, overturning a lower court’s decision that put control of the building and a set of bells worth millions of dollars in the hands of the congregation that worships there.
The 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals announced its decision Wednesday.
That means control of the nation’s oldest synagogue, Touro Synagogue in Newport, Rhode Island, will no longer be in the hands of the local congregation but rather under the control of the nation’s oldest Jewish congregation, Shearith Israel in New York.
The decision also gives Shearith Israel ownership of a set of silver Colonial-era bells, called rimonim, valued at $7.4 million.

Designers at New York Fashion Week remember Joan Rivers
NEW YORK FASHION WEEK DESIGNERS REMEMBER JOAN RIVERS
The fashion world is still reeling from the death of comedian Joan Rivers as New York Fashion Week rolls on through day two.
Before her show at the Lincoln Center tents designer Monique Lhuillier recalled Rivers approach to life and humor.
I unfortunately did not know her personally, but I was a big fan of the way she approached life. You know she always brought light to everything that she touched and fashion particularly because she made fun of it and you know she didn't make people take it too seriously. And the biggest gift that she left to me is every time I watched her she'd make me laugh and that gift you know is something so special. And she will be missed. And she had great personal style as well so I will remember her forever.
Luckily for Lhuillier she received good reviews from Rivers and her Fashion Police. Recently Rivers had praised Taylor Swift for wearing a red and pink Lhuillier gown to the New York premiere of The Giver.
Oh many times, yes. We were on fashion police many times and she was always so kind. And last week in particular they voted Taylor Swift best dressed in my design. So there was a lot of love between the two of us out there, she said.
Before her L.A.M.B. presentation Gwen Stefani took a moment to thank Rivers for all of the laughs.
You know what, I was probably like everybody else. She was just, she was there. She was a part of everyone's lives and it's seems so sad and weird that she's not here. It's going to take a minute to like realize it and my heart goes out to her family. I mean, I don't know how they are dealing with it and we love you guys. Thank you for all of the laughs.
Rivers, who was 81, died Thursday (4 SEPT. 2014) at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York. She had been hospitalized since Aug. 28 when she went into cardiac arrest during a routine procedure at a doctor's office. The New York state health department is investigating the circumstances.
Spokeswoman Julie Bolcer said Friday that the cause and manner of death will require further studies.
Rivers' funeral is set for Sunday at Temple Emanu-El; services will be private and no other details were released.

The Jewish Communities of the Western United States
Speaker: Steven Windmueller
Date: July 15, 2010
The Jewish Communities of the Western United States
Twenty-five percent of all American Jews live in the Western United States representing a distinctive and growing voice within Jewish life. Different types of Western Jewish communities have emerged, reflecting unique economic and social factors. Western Jews have taken on many of the attributes associated with their region. The pioneering and independent spirit of the region has fostered special Jewish communal and religious models. Experimentation has typified Jewish life in this part of the world. Distance from the capital of American Jewry, New York, has led to institutional conflicts that have further separated Western Jewry form the rest of the community.
Prof. Steven Windmueller served as Dean of the Los Angeles campus of Hebrew Union College- Jewish Institute of Religion from June 2006 until June 2010. He currently holds the College's Rabbi Alfred Gottschalk Chair in Jewish Communal Service. He is a fellow of the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs. From 1995 to 2006, Prof. Windmueller was director of the College's School of Jewish Federation of Los Angeles, and for twelve years before that as a federation director in upstate New York. He holds a doctorate in international relations form the University of Pennsylvania.

CURRICULUM VITAE OF HAIM A. ASA
Rabbi Asa, the senior rabbi of Orange County, has been the spiritual leader of Temple Beth Tikvah of North Orange County since the mid 1960's. In 1971 the congregation of Temple Beth Tikvah overwhelmingly granted Rabbi Asa life tenure. In 1996 the rabbi became the Rabbi Emeritus of Temple Beth Tikvah. Rabbi Asa is currently a senior chaplain with the State of California Department of Mental Health serving Metropolitan State Hospital in Norwalk and Fairview Hospital in Costa Mesa, California.
In 1970 the congregation moved to its permanent location, 1600 N. Acacia, Fullerton, California, and in December of 1980 dedicated its new sanctuary and other facilities. Rabbi Asa was instrumental in helping the congregation realize both of these congregational landmarks. During the Rabbi's tenure in Orange County, he saw the congregation grow from a small group of families to approximately 400 families. The Asas have also seen the Orange County Jewish Community grow from 3-4 congregations to approximately 26 congregations today and from 10- 15,000 Jews to approximately 100,000 Jews living here. In June of 2009 the groundbreaking for the Asa Center for Lifelong Jewish Learning took place which honors The Asa's commitment to Jewish Education and the survival of the Jewish People and their many years of dedication to their temple, Temple Beth Tikvah. This will be the new temple school and administrative offices. The new building in the Asa's honor will be dedicated on October 24, 2010.
Rabbi Asa was born in Bulgaria to a family of Sephardic origins; his ancestors escaped the Inquisition in Spain and Portugal in the 15'h and 16'h centuries and found refuge in the Turkish Ottoman Empire.
The Asa family was in Bulgaria during outbreak of the Second World War, and Rabbi Asa's father was one of the leaders of the community responsible for the saving of the Bulgarian Jews during the Nazi Holocaust period.
In 1944, still during the Nazi domination of Bulgaria, Rabbi Asa and his family left Bulgaria and made Aliyah. In Palestine, Rabbi Asa was educated in Aliyat Hanoar Schools and the famous Mikve Israel Agricultural School.
In 1954 Rabbi Asa came to the United States to pursue university studies in New York and California, and graduated from the University of Arizona in 1958. During his studies he worked and taught in a number of synagogues and Jewish camps.
In 1958 Rabbi Asa enrolled in the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in Los Angeles. Upon graduation and before his transfer to Cincinnati to pursue the last three years of studies, Rabbi Asa wed Elaine Barbara Carl of Los Angeles. The Asas spent three years in Cincinnati, and Rabbi Asa was ordained with highest honors in 1963.
From 1963-1966 Rabbi Asa was the Latin American Director of the World Union for Progressive Judaism with headquarters in Buenos Aires, Argentina. During the three years in South America, Rabbi Asa was responsible for all of the liberal congregations south of the United States. Rabbi and Elaine Asa were founders of Congregation Emanu-El de Buenos Aires, a congregation that the Asas still visit every few years in order to renew their social and spiritual ties. Recently they participated in the 40th year celebration of the congregation they founded.
Currently he lives with his wife Elaine in Fullerton, California.

New York City 4K - Madison Avenue Drive
Driving Downtown Streets - Madison Avenue - New York City New York USA - Episode 99.
Starting Point: Madison Avenue .
Madison Avenue is an avenue in Manhattan in New York City, United States. Since the 1920s, the street's name has been metonymous with the American advertising industry. Therefore, the term Madison Avenue refers specifically to the agencies, and methodology of advertising. Madison Avenue techniques refers, according to William Safire, to the gimmicky, slick use of the communications media to play on emotions.
It passes through Midtown, the Upper East Side (including Carnegie Hill), East Harlem, and Harlem. It is named after and arises from Madison Square, which is itself named after James Madison, the fourth President of the United States.
Role in Advertising Industry
The term Madison Avenue is often used metonymically for advertising, and Madison Avenue became identified with the American advertising industry after the explosive growth in this area in the 1920s.
According to The Emergence of Advertising in America, by the year 1861, there were twenty advertising agencies in New York City; and in 1911, the New York City Association of Advertising Agencies was founded, predating the establishment of the American Association of Advertising Agencies by several years.
Among various depictions in popular culture, the portion of the advertising industry which centers on Madison Avenue serves as a backdrop for the AMC television drama Mad Men, which focuses on industry activities during the 1960s.
In recent decades, many agencies have left Madison Avenue, with some moving further downtown and others moving west. The continued presence of large agencies in the city makes New York the third largest job market per capita in the U.S., in 2016 according to a study by marketing recruitment firm MarketPro. Today, only a few agencies are still located in the old business cluster on Madison Avenue, including StrawberryFrog, TBWA Worldwide and Doyle Dane Bernbach. However, the term is still used to describe the agency business as a whole and large, New York–based agencies in particular.
Economy
Retail brands with locations on Madison Avenue include: Alexander McQueen, Hermès, Tom Ford, Céline, Proenza Schouler, Lanvin, Valentino, Stuart Weitzman, Damiani, Emporio Armani, Prada, Chloé, Roberto Cavalli, Davidoff, Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, Calvin Klein, Cartier, Christian Louboutin, La Perla, Jimmy Choo, Jacadi, Mulberry, Victoria's Secret, Barneys New York, Coach, Emanuel Ungaro, Giorgio Armani, Oliver Peoples, Vera Wang, Anne Fontaine, Baccarat, Carolina Herrera, Ralph Lauren and others.
Manhattan
Manhattan is the most densely populated borough of New York City, its economic and administrative center, and its historical birthplace.
Many districts and landmarks in Manhattan are well known, as New York City received a record 61 million tourists in 2016, and Manhattan hosts three of the world's 10 most-visited tourist attractions in 2013: Times Square, Central Park, and Grand Central Terminal. The borough hosts many prominent bridges, such as the Brooklyn Bridge; skyscrapers such as the Empire State Building; and parks, such as Central Park. Chinatown incorporates the highest concentration of Chinese people in the Western Hemisphere, and the Stonewall Inn in Greenwich Village, part of the Stonewall National Monument, is considered the birthplace of the modern gay rights movement. The City of New York was founded at the southern tip of Manhattan, and the borough houses New York City Hall, the seat of the city's government. Numerous colleges and universities are located in Manhattan,[35]including Columbia University, New York University, Weill Cornell Medical College, and Rockefeller University, which have been ranked among the top 40 in the world.

Rabbi Sherwin Wine Oral History Interview
Rabbi Sherwin Wine was born in Detroit, Michigan. His parents immigrated to the United States from part of the Russian Empire that is now in Poland. His father, whose name was originally Herschel Wengrowski, joined family members in Detroit in 1906. Wine’s mother, Tieblei Israelski, immigrated to Detroit in 1914. Wine attended Detroit public schools with almost completely Jewish student bodies. His religious upbringing was in Conservative Judaism, at Shaarey Zedek synagogue. His parents kept a kosher home and observed Shabbat.
Wine attended the University of Michigan, earning a Bachelor of Arts degree and later a Master of Arts degree, both in philosophy. As an undergraduate student he was most sympathetic to empiricism, particularly its then-current manifestation logical positivism. At the same time, he was attracted to the humanistic outlook of some faculty members.
Despite his movement away from theism, Wine decided to join the clergy rather than academia and in 1951 enrolled in the rabbinic program at Reform Judaism’s Hebrew Union College. Wine volunteered for service as a chaplain in the U.S. Army after his ordination as a rabbi and served as associate rabbi at the Reform Temple Beth El in Detroit for six months while awaiting induction. Wine began his service as an Army chaplain in January 1957 and was stationed in Korea. In November 1958, he returned to Temple Beth El in Detroit. In the fall of 1959, he joined a group in Windsor, Ontario just across the Detroit River in Canada to organize a new Reform congregation, also called Beth El.
In 1963, a disaffected group from Temple Beth El in Detroit contacted Wine and asked him to meet with them about forming a new Reform congregation in the northwestern suburbs of Detroit, where the members now lived. He began leading services for the new group, initially eight families, in September 1963 in Farmington Hills, Michigan. Working with members of this small group to develop language which reflected their true beliefs, Wine eventually made the decision to eliminate the word “God” from the services and instead to use new liturgy that extolled Jewish history, culture, and ethical values. This decision was to lay the foundation for the development of Humanistic Judaism as separate from Reform Judaism or any other existing Jewish stream.
The congregation, now known as the Birmingham Temple, purchased land in Farmington Hills, Michigan, and moved into a newly constructed building in 1971. Wine served as the rabbi of the Birmingham Temple until his retirement in 2003, at which time he began devoting most of his efforts to his work as Dean for North America and Provost of the International Institute for Secular Humanistic Judaism as well as to lecturing on a wide range of topics under the auspices of the Center for New Thinking, which he had founded in 1976. Sherwin Wine died in a car accident in Morocco in 2007, where he was vacationing with Richard McMains, his life partner of over 25 years.

CURRICULUM VITAE OF HAIM A. ASA
Rabbi Asa, the senior rabbi of Orange County, has been the spiritual leader of Temple Beth Tikvah of North Orange County since the mid 1960's. In 1971 the congregation of Temple Beth Tikvah overwhelmingly granted Rabbi Asa life tenure. In 1996 the rabbi became the Rabbi Emeritus of Temple Beth Tikvah. Rabbi Asa is currently a senior chaplain with the State of California Department of Mental Health serving Metropolitan State Hospital in Norwalk and Fairview Hospital in Costa Mesa, California.
In 1970 the congregation moved to its permanent location, 1600 N. Acacia, Fullerton, California, and in December of 1980 dedicated its new sanctuary and other facilities. Rabbi Asa was instrumental in helping the congregation realize both of these congregational landmarks. During the Rabbi's tenure in Orange County, he saw the congregation grow from a small group of families to approximately 400 families. The Asas have also seen the Orange County Jewish Community grow from 3-4 congregations to approximately 26 congregations today and from 10- 15,000 Jews to approximately 100,000 Jews living here. In June of 2009 the groundbreaking for the Asa Center for Lifelong Jewish Learning took place which honors The Asa's commitment to Jewish Education and the survival of the Jewish People and their many years of dedication to their temple, Temple Beth Tikvah. This will be the new temple school and administrative offices. The new building in the Asa's honor will be dedicated on October 24, 2010.
