IRT Powerhouse, Manhattan
IRT Powerhouse, ManhattanThe IRT Powerhouse (Interborough Rapid Transit Powerhouse) is a former power station of the Interborough Rapid Transit Company. Built in 1904, the "thoroughly classical colossus of a building" fills the entire block between 58th to 59th Street, and from 11th to 12th Avenues in Riverside South, Manhattan. Since the building became unnecessary to the subway system in the 1950s, Consolidated Edison has used the space to supply the New York City steam system.The powerhouse is an elaborately detailed Renaissance Revival building. The architect was Stanford White of McKim, Mead & White. The building's magnificence and ornate details reflect the ideas of the City Beautiful movement. It has been described as "a classical temple that paid homage to modern industry. According to the Municipal Art Society, many of the building's original details are intact, although in March 2009, the Consolidated Edison Company removed the last of its original smokestacks. However, one smokestack built in 1967 remains. The building originally had six smokestacks, designed to echo the smokestacks on the great steamships at the nearby Hudson River piers.In a meeting of the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission on November 5, 2015 the powerhouse was prioritized for designation as a public city landmark. Support for prioritizing the designation of the powerhouse was nearly unanimous, only opposed by two representatives of Consolidated Edison who currently operate the building as a part of the New York City steam system. On December 5, 2017, the IRT Powerhouse became a New York City Landmark.
