At NYC CommuNitY media we have a simple but important mission — to serve the residents,

visitors and workers of the communities we report on with the most relevant news, information and

opinions that affect their lives.

Being a part of the neighborhood matters.

Warren E. Buffett recently summed up the role community newspapers play in our residents’ lives in his letter to Berkshire-Hathaway Shareholders, March 1, 2013

“Newspapers continue to reign supreme in the delivery of local news. If you want to know about what’s going on in your town- there is no substitute for a local newspaper that is doing its job. Wherever there is a pervasive sense of community, a paper that serves the special informational needs of that community will remain indispensible to a significant portion of its residents.”

Whether we deliver our local, neighborhood news to our audience in print or online, our newspapers work to serve the people of our community, and our newspapers work for you in serving those same people — your customers.

TOWERING RUN

About 15,000 runners raced by the Freedom Tower on St. Patrick’s Day for the NYC Half Marathon Sunday.

The race fi nished up at the Seaport.

Lady Liberty will reopen

by Independence Day, in

time to catch the second

half of summertime traf-

fi c. In a teleconference on

March 19, U.S. Secretary

of the Interior Kenneth

Salazar said that statue was

on track to open by July 4

of this year, bringing back

much-needed jobs and tour-

ism to Lower Manhattan.

The iconic statue

has been closed since

Superstorm Sandy roared

into the harbor on Oct.

29, 2012.“Hurricane Sandy infl ict-

ed major damage on facili-

ties that support the Statue

of Liberty — destroying the

docks, crippling the ener-

gy infrastructure on Ellis

Island and wiping out the

security screening system

— but we are fully commit-

ted to reopening this crown

jewel as soon as it’s safe for

visitors and not a second

later,” said Salazar.

Senator Charles

Schumer, who was on

the press call, was excit-

ed about the impact the

reopening would have on

the city’s economy.

“Being open for the sum-

mer tourism season isn’t

just important symbolically,

it’s a boon to the city’s

economy and businesses, as

the statue attracts millions

of tourists from all over the

KREUZER

On April 24, 1913, U.S.

President Woodrow

Wilson pushed a but-

ton in Washington,

D.C. that fi red up dynamos

in the basement of the newly

fi nished Woolworth build-

ing at 233 Broadway in

New York City. The lights

in the building fl ashed on

all at once as thousands of

people in City Hall Park

watched. Thousands more

stood on the New Jersey side

of the Hudson River to see

the spectacle. Newspaper

accounts said that people

out at sea, 100 miles away,

witnessed the fl ash of elec-

tric light. At the time, the Woolworth

building at 792 feet was the

tallest building in the world.

It remained so until 1930,

when the Chrysler building

surpassed it.As the Woolworth build-

ing celebrates its centennial,

it is, of course no longer

anywhere near the tallest

building even in New York

City, but many people still

consider it to be one of the

city’s most beautiful sky-

scrapers. The exterior, with

its delicate tracery of terra

cotta ornamentation and its

copper-clad roof, is a well-

known feature of the skyline.

The interior of the Lower

Manhattan building is less

well known except to the

ADVERTISING Print Ad Creation and Submission

BLACK AND WHITE

The following standards are recommended for black and white newspaper ads:

• Every continuous tone or halftone image should be evaluated on an individual basis with an expected dot gain of approximately 30%.

• Dot gain curves are non-linear; ads will gain more in their mid-tone values than highlight or shadow.

• All continuous tone images should be at least 170 ppi at their final output size.

• Line art should be at 1016 ppi.• All supplied ads should have a minimum of 5%

in the highlight and a maximum of 80% in the shadow area.

• Any part of the ad not intended to print solid black should be created at a maximum of 75%.

• A minimum of 20% contrast between foreground and background is suggested.

• Type should be kept at a minimum of 8 pt. for standard or 12 pt. for reverse.

• All type intended to print solid black should be set at 100% black.

• Surprinted type should be solid black and contrasted against a 30% or less black screen.

least 14 pt. and a medium-to-bold sans-serif typeface is recommended. Dropped-out (reversed) type in a black only area should be at least 10 pt. medium to bold sans-serif typeface.

DANA THAYERSenior Vice President, MarketingChelsea Piers

Gay City News has been a fantastic addition to our media plan. Our properties, Dyker B each and Pelham Split Rock Golf Courses, are fabulous wedding locations. With Gay City News’s vast audience through print, online and e-mail, we have booked three gay weddings for the upcoming year.

Thank you!

HOLLY REDHEFFERNational Sales Management & Marketing Project Manager American Golf Corporation

Our “Stand with Japan” event on Sunday went very well, so many people came out to show their support and to participate in the activities. We raised more than $20,000 in just 3 hours. Most of our guests were young families from this neighborhood and I believe the ad in the Downtown Express took our event to the next level. We could not have done this without your support.

Thank you so much,AYAKO ALLEN

The Villager is a great avenue to build community support for our youth softball and baseball programs. The Villager staff is always looking for opportunities to take advantage of key dates in our GVLL calendar. We’ve enjoyed a long and fruitful relationship and look forward to many years to come.

I am delighted to be advertising in Downtown Express. Your design team has made my job so much easier. Everything about the experience has been easy, helpful and straightforward. We are new to the neighborhood, so it’s hard to know where to advertise. Being a grassroots kind of gal, I took to the streets walking into every building in Battery Park City to introduce myself. There in the lobbies I saw several publications, Downtown Express being one of them Of course it’s hard to know what people are actually reading...so I asked. Again and again doormen told me that the paper they see their residents reading is Downtown Express. I am delighted to be a part of the neighborhood and also to have a wonderful resource to keep a finger to the pulse of what is happening downtown.
