Frederick L. Ackerman : ウィキペディア英語版 | Frederick L. Ackerman Frederick L. Ackerman (1878–1950) was an architect and housing reformer in the United States. He supported proactive engagement of the federal government to supply quality housing for the working class. He participated in the federal government's earliest housing program with architects Clarence S. Stein and Henry Wright (landscape architect) on their projects Sunnyside (1924) and Radburn (1928), and worked for the New York City Housing Authority. While he favored traditional architecture and lower income housing, he also designed modernist buildings, luxury apartment buildings and home designs.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ArchitectureWeek - Classic Home 039 - 2012.0222 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Elizabeth C.

First Houses was a project planned as a gut rehab, with every third tenement building torn down to provide extra light and air, but architect Frederick Ackerman and his engineers soon discovered that the 19th century tenements were too fragile to be reconstructed. So they were torn down and First Houses was built from scratch, employing re-used bricks and dozens of workers on relief paid for by the federal government. According to The New York Times on November 21, 1935: "Originally scheduled as a renovation operation, it was turned into practically new construction, with only a few of the old foundation supports being utilized." Ackerman designed the apartment buildings with rear entrances and courtyards to allow more light and air than the existing tenements in the neighborhood.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=First Houses Public Housing Project - New York NY - Living New Deal )〕 First Houses were designated a New York City and National Historic Landmark in 1974. They are managed by the New York City Housing Authority.〔http://www.neighborhoodpreservationcenter.org/db/bb_files/74-FIRST-HOUSES.pdf〕
