It’s hard to imagine New York City without Robert Moses. He built parks and parkways at unprecedented scale — and tore through neighborhoods with equal force. In this class, Cornell historian Thomas J. Campanella examines his complicated legacy: tr.ee/lHXBHJ

#RobertMoses was born in New Haven #OnThisDay in 1888, rising to become the most powerful man in #NewYorkCity government though he was never elected to any office; his enormous projects transformed the city as documented in "The Power Broker" by Robert Caro (1974):

⛳️ As the Ryder Cup tees off at Bethpage Black on Long Island, I really didn’t expect any mention of Robert Moses - yet here he is, from Simon Worrall’s piece in the UK Observer 🏌🏿♀️
Had no idea Bethpage was born out of FDR’s #NewDeal either 💡

My reading project for the year is Robert Caro’s The Power Broker. Lots of lessons for city planning; this one seems particularly relevant for #Ottawa. Raising fares discourages people from taking transit. #otttransit #octranspo #autowa #RobertMoses #RobertCaro

August 29, 1961 - The Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) was pursuing its voter registration drive in Amite County, Mississippi. Of 5000 eligible Negro voters in the county, just one was registered to vote.

In honor of Jane Jacobs 🎂 "Citizen Jane: Battle for the City" details the life of a woman who was a force of nature & fierce foe of Robert Moses (AKA "The Power Broker: Robert Moses & the Fall of New York") #NYC #cityplanning #urbandesign #RobertMoses #Caro #Gottlieb www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKjk...
When in #NYC, next to the #MuseumOfNatural#History is #TheNewYorkHistorical. Lots of interesting exhibits, particularly the #TiffanyLamps. And, #RobertMoses #biographer, #RobertCaro, who lives nearby, often speaks here. #tourism #travel
oof. #portland really dodged some bullets fired by #RobertMoses - sheesh. what a mess it would've been. i mean, it's still kind of a mess but holy shit the things he was proposing. too bad about Sullivan's Gulch.

Calling the man a fascist, nazi, psychopath doesn't help. #Musk started this job as an idealist. What we call a massive failure, is collateral damage to him/them.
Read this American classic about architect #RobertMoses who got too much power and see the striking parallels with the current situation.
Maybe Americans should pay more attention at their (recent!) history and read more/better books. If they would've read "The Power Broker" by #Caro, they would understand what #Musk is up to.
#Power!
Starting as an idealist (like #RobertMoses) but soon becoming an uncontrollable autocrat.
Gotta give credit to Gene Gleason and Fred Cook at the World Telegram too. Their stories were even better researched and critical of Moses than those at the Post.

It’s crazy that the NY Post was the only NYC paper doing actual journalism in the 1950s.

I'm personally neither a fan nor a critic of Brendan Lee Mulligan's roleplaying style. But I did enjoy The Power Broker episode where they interviewed Brendan, in part about his D&D campaign patterned as a sort of mythic NYC shaped by an esoteric version of Robert Moses, inspired directly by […]

I read every word of this incredible book back in 2023. For such a dry subject it made me go through all the emotions. #NYC is such an incredible place both in awesome and terrifying ways. From far, far away, I felt like a New Yorker. #thepowerbroker #robertmoses #urbanism
