![]() But the majority of people on the board-the majority of people making the decisions up until mid-’75-are actually the same people that are on the board of the United Housing Foundation. There were residents on the board the corporation that technically runs Co-op City. The idea was that once they paid off the mortgage, then they would actually control the cooperative completely. The United Housing Foundation two kinds of shares, A shares and B shares. Why did Co-op City need another step to get there? ![]() When we think of a co-op, we tend to think of it as being automatically resident-controlled. They win resident control of the development away from the United Housing Foundation. This rent strike, about 80% of the population participated in it. They were projected to rise up to 250 percent over what they’d been originally projected as. This rent strike really is a carrying charge strike essentially, carrying charges had risen. These carrying charges pay the mortgage, operating expenses, utilities. Everyone buys in-that’s what they call an equity deposit-and then you pay monthly carrying charges. Now, in reality, they’re not paying rent, because it’s a cooperative they own a piece of the development as a whole. The United Housing Foundation builds Co-op City it’s their largest project and it’s their final project using funding from New York State.Ĭo-op City is first occupied in the late ’60s but prices wind up rising, and by the mid-1970s, they have what they called a rent strike. Essentially, we’re talking about communist Jews. The United Housing Foundation has its origins in the Lower East Side. It was built in the mid-’60s by a group called the United Housing Foundation, was part of this broader push in New York state and New York City to produce not just housing projects for the very poor but affordable apartment housing for the middle class and working class. It’s 15,372 apartments, in a corner of the Northeast Bronx. What is Co-op City? How did it come to be?Ĭo-op City is the largest housing cooperative in America, possibly internationally. I didn’t know about the history, I just knew that it had happened. Growing up, I played with the children of the leaders of the rent strike. My family moved to Co-op City right after the rent strike ended. I’d heard pieces of history, but very little. Basically, the people around you are all ordinary New Yorkers. One is, as I say in the book, Co-op City is designed in a way for ordinary New Yorkers. ![]() I don’t think I grew up thinking of it as a particularly unique or special place at all, for a couple of reasons. “ Freedomland: Co-op City and the Story of New York,” by Oberlin College history professor Annemarie Sammartino, traces the history of Co-op City from its initial planning stages in the mid 1960s through the early 1990s, including a major rent strike, the assertion of community control, race and class dynamics, and the ways the development reflected what was happening in New York City as a whole.Īt what point did you realize that you grew up in a very unusual place compared to most Americans? It seems timely, then, that a new book is out about the largest housing cooperative in the country, a development of phenomenal scale and longevity-Co-op City in the Bronx.

Chasing fish around a pond will only stress all fish involved and lengthy periods of time spent in a bag while other fish are caught should be avoided. Netting and bagging a collection of pond fish can be a lengthy and risky procedure and should be carried out as quickly and as cautiously as possible. Available from aquatic stores, large clear bags and elastic bands are essential for moving fish.Ī helping hand. Unfortunately, unless you have a willing contact in the fishery industry, this preferred method of transportation is not an option for house movers and you will have to rely on the way in which your pond fish entered the country – in polythene bags. These tanks allow fish to enjoy a greater volume of water during transportation as well as the benefits of vigorous diffused aeration. Professionals that work in the fishery industry transport their stock in fibreglass tanks (approx 1 cubic metre) that are sited on the back of a pick-up truck. Water for bagging should be collected from the pond before netting starts, ensuring that they get the best water for their journey. If this water is used for transporting fish, the suspended particulate matter will make the water inferior compared with clear and debris-free water. Netting and capturing fish can cause any settled sediment or debris to be resuspended in the pond (especially in a planted pond). Fish can quite easily go without food for a week and this will allow them to evacuate their guts prior to the move. Fish excretion rates increase with stress, leading to the fouling of the transport water. Plan to reduce feeding as the date of completion approaches (especially if it is a summer move). But we can learn a few principles from the professionals and apply them where possible to our own move for the benefit of our fish.įeeding. Unfortunately, during a house move we cannot choose to move our fish ‘out of season’ as our timing is dictated by estate agents and solicitors. Furthermore, they are less likely to pollute their transportation water than if they were transported in the summer months. Being cold-blooded, fish metabolism at these temperatures is reduced, they are less active and easier to catch. The best time for moving pond fish is during cooler temperatures. The move can be split into 3 stages: Preparation, transportation and acclimatisation, and by managing each part individually, steps can be taken to keep stress to a minimum. When fish experience such changes, their bodies react in such a way as to make them more susceptible to disease and it is our responsibility to plan wisely and as best as we can to keep stress to a minimum. This could involve a rapid deterioration in water quality or repeated netting and handling, either of which are likely to be experienced during a house move. When fish experience unfavourable and extreme changes to their environment, they will inevitably suffer stress. Incidents of disease will lag behind periods of stress. And if those pets are pond fish, we can be faced with making a host of complicated arrangements – Something that cannot and should not be left to the moving professionals.Įach house move will be unique with respect to its specific details, but when pond fish are involved, a number of steps need to be planned to make the move as hazard and stress-free as possible for our fish and ourselves. Those of us with children can be faced with additional challenges (depending on the distances involved) while pets can add even further difficulties along the way. The more fortunate ones can leave the packing and moving to professionals who have vast experience at easing wardrobes down flights of stairs and packing the most fragile of items so that they arrive intact at their destination.

Is your paper-based office holding you back? In this blog, we discuss eight excellent reasons to go paperless. This is where your investment in training will come in handy, but you should still be prepared for errors to occur we’re only human after all.In an increasingly competitive marketplace, your business needs any edge it can get. When it comes to going paperless, there will be more pressure on employees to make very few mistakes.įiling a document in the wrong place, or under the wrong name could cause many issues – let alone if a file is deleted or saved over for good, disappearing swiftly into the abyss. A common phrase when something goes awry, because human error is a very common mishap. Breaks to read documents on paper, or to get up and walk to the printer allow employees to take recommended screen breaks, as well as moving around from the desk. This can sometimes get overlooked, but a digital-only environment will require employees to stare at screens for much longer during the day. This will mean more overheads and further outgoings for the business. ![]() When technology plays an important role in your business, other than the basic software on a computer, you will need to look at hiring or outsourcing an IT team. Digitising can be a very time-consuming process of scanning and digitally filing documents, so be prepared to lose valuable work time. But when working with documents, if you are already looking to be more paperless, you will need to check all of your documents and make digital copies before they are disposed of. One misconception is that a paperless world is a quicker and more efficient world, which is true in some areas including paying via card or contactless. Being out on training for a day means a day of not doing any work for clients. However, training is a big cost to a business – not only to pay for training, but also in time. Whether it’s training on a job or a new piece of software, it’s vital to ensure everyone knows what to do and how something works. Invest in a high-quality printer which can be connected via a cable or wi-fi, you can then reduce printer spending by investing in compatible ink or toner rather than branded. ![]() While a paperless society seems much simpler, hard copies are the best form of backup. A corrupt update, a power cut, a poor connection – all of these can cause a malfunction and wipe out documents and whole systems. But all great things have an Achilles heel, and technology’s Achilles is itself. Technology has come along leaps and bounds and can help businesses thrive in areas they’d never imagined before. While with a printer, you can simply print off any important documents and file them away in a locked cabinet. The desktop on your laptop just won’t cut it. You will need to have measures in place which can encrypt and secure data, as well as having something which can back it up and a place to store it. Great security isn’t cheap, but it is essential. Then when it comes to handling any confidential information, you will need to ensure the highest security measures are in place. ![]() If the business has decided to go paperless to save money, you may see a greater loss than if it were to keep using paper. This is dangerous both from a data breach point of view and a financial stance. One way a business can protect itself and the people involved is to invest in high-security measures to stop hackers from potentially getting any information. With more and more industries turning to technology to make things more convenient for consumers – online banking and online shopping for example – it’s an appealing world for hackers wanting to steal vital information, both business and personal. One of the biggest flaws to a paperless-world is the security risks that come with it. However, there are some dangers that come with moving to a paperless office and we’re going to delve a little deeper into why paperless isn’t always the best option. On the surface it appears to be a great solution for a business reduced spending on ink or toner, no need to upgrade the printer and the environment will get a break from the wasted paper being thrown away. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The estimate assumes that slightly more than half of Amazon’s estimated US customer base chooses a financial relationship with the firm-the same share of people who said in our new global survey that they expect to buy a financial product from a major technology firm over the next five years. This estimate is based on three assumptions: Amazon achieves the bank account penetration our consumer research suggests 15% of its e-commerce customers pay directly from their Amazon bank account instead of through a credit card and those customers spend at the same level as Amazon Prime customers.īeyond that direct cost saving, we could imagine Amazon’s banking services growing to more than 70 million US consumer relationships over the next five years or so-the same as Wells Fargo, the third-largest bank in the US. Bain & Company estimates that Amazon could avoid more than a quarter of a billion dollars in annual interchange fees in the US alone. ![]() Amazon could make it easy for customers to pay right from that account instead of with their credit cards, which impose an average 2% interchange fee for most transactions on Amazon or its third-party merchants. Amazon might generate revenue through fees and royalties from the bank partner, though the more valuable financial benefit will likely be the savings Amazon realizes from direct access to customers’ checking accounts. The arrangement allows Amazon to avoid dealing with bank regulatory compliance and managing the balance sheet. Rather, the bank it partners with would probably hold deposits, while Amazon would design and manage the customer experience and distribution. Given these two advantages, Amazon’s incremental costs will be almost nil.Īmazon will not legally become a bank. The company can also avoid a lot of the customer acquisition costs borne by most direct banks because it already has digital relationships with so many Americans. Instead, Amazon could steer new customers to “just ask Alexa,” its voice assistant on the Echo device. Start with Amazon’s mission statement: “Our vision is to be Earth's most customer-centric company to build a place where people can come to find and discover anything they might want to buy online.” It can afford to go after this previously unprofitable segment in part because it will be able to transform the economics of banking Amazon does not have the burden of an expensive branch and contact center network, which we estimate comprises roughly 40% of a North American retail bank’s costs on average. Most banks don’t relish serving this part of the market, but Amazon has several good reasons to do so.Īmazon has spotted a segment of customers that it can serve better, and the company can worry about making money later. The checking and debit account components of a banking relationship are notoriously unprofitable, especially for a fee-free model aimed at younger customers who have little money to keep in the account. How can traditional banks respond? Why Amazon would bother Amazon may be moving further into the banking sector. ![]() |
