dbo:abstract
  • The Municipal Asphalt Plant is a historic building on the Upper East Side of Manhattan in New York City. Originally an asphalt plant, the structure was built between 1941 and 1944 and since 1984 has been home to Asphalt Green, a pool and fitness center. The building was made in a style that fit the residential character of the surrounding neighborhood, while also being industrial. The interior of the plant was designed first, and the exterior of the building was designed based on the internal structure. The exterior was designed with four arched ribs, constructed with reinforced concrete. The arch reduced unused space, stresses, and the need for extraneous reinforced steel. It uses reinforced concrete, a cheaper alternative that had been experimented with in Europe, but not used to any great effect. The plant was erected with surrounding structures. Several of these, such as the storage facility and the conveyor, were torn down in 1968. The plant building was made a New York City designated landmark in 1976 and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. (en)
  • La Planta Municipal de Asfalto (en inglés, Municipal Asphalt Plant) es un edificio histórico en el Upper East Side de Manhattan en Nueva York (Estados Unidos). Originalmente era una planta de asfalto y fue construida entre 1941 y 1944. Desde 1984 ha sido el hogar de Asphalt Green, una piscina y un gimnasio.​ El edificio fue construido en un estilo que encajaba con el carácter residencial del vecindario circundante, al mismo tiempo que era industrial. Primero se diseñó el interior de la planta y el exterior del edificio con base en la estructura interna. El exterior fue diseñado con cuatro nervios arqueados, construido con hormigón armado. El arco redujo el espacio no utilizado, las tensiones y la necesidad de acero reforzado. Utiliza hormigón armado, una alternativa más barata con la que se había experimentado en Europa. La planta incluía otras estructuras, como un almacén y un transportador, que fueron demolidos en 1968. El edificio de la planta se convirtió en un hito de Nueva York en 1976 y se agregó al Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos en 1980.​ (es)
