The following Cultural Landscape Report has been prepared for Gateway National Recreation Area (NRA) in cooperation with the Olmsted Center for Landscape Preservation (OCLP) responding to requests for assistance regarding the landscape areas comprising the Sandy Hook Proving Ground and the wartime expansion areas of Fort Hancock at Gateway's Sandy Hook Unit (see Frontspiece for a map of New York Harbor and Gateway National Recreation Area). This report is intended to provide a general overview of the landscape history of the study area, describe the character-defining landscape features, identify preservation issues, and make preliminary treatment recommendations"--Section1: Introduction, pg.1.
First published in The New Yorker, “Solomon tells the story of Peter Lanza, the father of Adam Lanza, the Sandy Hook Elementary shooter. Read it—it’s moving, brave and just profoundly human and sad....There aren’t any answers. And that’s what makes this all so impossible, and Solomon’s journalism so essential” (Salon.com). “Both parents loved Adam. Neither parent imagined or wanted their child’s horrific end. This is why what Peter Lanza did by sharing his story with Andrew Solomon is so important. Lanza’s story fills important gaps in our understanding of how a beloved child became a killer—and reminds us as a society that we have an obligation to help families and children before they find themselves on irreversible paths of violence” (Time).
