. >> so based on our analysis if we lose 2 henry adams and 62 thousand which one housing unit is taken off the housing market if we include that x amount of units is removed from the housing market the economic interacting impact is 2 hundred and 62 thesis times and supervisor one the reasons we say many times in our report we don't have the day on the rent controls how many housing unit are permanently off the market we explicit do you want an approach to try to make an estimate we don't feel that is there that's why we are expressing if on a per unit basis. >> i think i'll end it with that, i think that is interesting that the one thing that is clearly delineated in that report is that if you have a loss of one affordable unit there's a clear negative impact on the city of 2 henry adams and $62,000 on anchorage if you extrapolate that in terms of the number one number of units removed from the housing unit if you take the numbers from the controller or the economic i thought the 9 hundred and 25 units to one thousand 9 hundreds and 62 units that's a total of times $200,672,000 that's

had no culture, what the heck is henry adams coming down for? our myths about washington don't quite meet up with the reality. but as far as anti-the house not particularly that i have seen in anything on this. there is certainly a group of individuals who do think there ought to be such a thing as income tax, which finally does come into being but it is, what, 15 years after this house or something like that. in general, there wasn't too much of a concern. there have been a concern -- there had been a concern earlier, as i mentioned, in 1890-1891 to pass a bill in congress absolutely nowhere -- congress that got prohibiting any house over a quarter of a million dollars. i have not seen much against this. because i think this idea of an american of renaissance did capture the public. and that you are getting those libraries such as the carnegie libraries, which is for the public. and so there is something that is out there. the cities are being improved, but attempts at improving the city, through the city beautiful. there is on one level, a sli

adams's. but not to henry as a world traveler himself.e recollects her sitting in her paneled room, using her silver tea pot that that she brought with her from her home in england to the old house. she would entertain both herself and many guest in this room. john quincy adams and louisa would inherit this home from john adams. john quincy thought about selling it, but then decided that it was important to the family story to hold onto the house for future generations. susan: you can visit there today. where the papers? amanda: they are at the massachusetts historical society in boston. they used to be at the old house would distill my very, but they were transferred to the historical society for safekeeping. susan: a question on facebook from genie webber. i have read excerpts from her autobiography, it said the massachusetts historical society was going to publish the papers. is that true? amanda: yes. a two volume of her autobiographical writings, which includes a record of my life adventures of a nobody, and her narrative of a journe

adams came in second. so the election went to the house of representatives. the man eliminated by the constitution, a fourth place finisher henrytely withdrew his support to adams that was enough to win him the presidency which turned out in many ways to be a poisoned chalice. because from day one, there were charges of corrupt bargain, they hung over the adams' presidency. i think it's safe to say adams' himself signed an almost apologetic note in his inaugural address and it was this at the election of 1828 began but almost before he took the oath of office. swain and you mentioned in her : own way she helped him win the presidency. she actually began to refer to it as my campaign and it was the second half of the monroe - the second monroe administration where the social etiquette wars where at full force and the adams's - you're going to tell the story for us - but began to see an opportunity to use social washington as a pathway to the white house. how do they do it? mathews: yes. well, i mean when they get back in 1817 to washington, they've been gone from washington now for quite a while, john quincy has served in both s

was the infamous 36 congress, and she is writing home is unbelievably frank letters to his son henry adams and she says a president buchanan that he is a heavy old code and the senate behaved like children in silly ones that bad. we can get behind this. again, my favorite, i would advise any young woman who wishes to have an easy cry out life not to marian adams. so i knew whatever i did that the letters would be great but i still didn't know what the book was. so i started thinking about my own growing up here after world war ii and the effects of the war were very physically present the mullahs call bird with with what we call temporary buildings that had gone up in world war i and then more had been added. i remember asking my parents with temporary went because they didn't seem to be going anywhere and they were there for a long time. so you saw physically how the war had increased the government and made the city a bigger more important city. we knew the stories or at least learn the stories of rosie the riveter in the government girls who came into town in large numbers to staff the

three democratic republicans john quincy adams, henry clay, albert ellison. and then russell and they art -- bayard. this is the team you want. there is a connection to my home park afford mchenry, christopher hughes. he's the secretary for the commission. he was commander of artillery -- artillery. john quincy adams did not think too highly of mr. hughes. he said, houston leave the whole science of diplomacy consists in giving -- hughes believes the whole science of diplomacy consists in giving dinners. who are the british sending? dr. william adams, admiralty lawyer. he's on the team because americans are known to favor legalistic arguments. lord gambier will look out for the british naval interests. they're not going to budge on this issue. the reason they can't is the minute they give up the idea of impressment, what any british sailor does not want to be part of the navy, what are they going to do? desert to an american flag vessel. if you're great britain, if you give up impressment, you just shot yourself in the foot. henry goulburn, is there to look a

she's driving home is these unbelievably frank letters to her son henry adams, and she says president buchanan that he is a heavy old toad and the senate behaved like children and silly ones at that. i mean we can get behind this. but again, my favorite, i would advise any young woman who wishes to have an easy cry at life not to marry and adams. so you know, i do whatever i did that the letters would be great but i still didn't know what the book was. so i started thinking about again, my own growing up here after world war ii and the ethics of the war were very physically present. the mall was covered with we call temporary buildings and that initially caught up in world war i and then more have been added in world war ii the album ever asking my parents what temporary not because they didn't seem to be going anywhere, and they were there for a long time until the buildings were built on independence avenue. so you so physically how the war has increased the government and made the city a bigger more important the city. we knew the stories or at least learned the stories of rosie th

one of the deals that was made was that henry clay would become the vice president and adams would winhe election. once we come out of that election, the buildup to the next election is that that was a corrupt bargain. susan: you described 1824 setting the stage for 1828. the 1828 campaign was old and midis brought together again. how did it play out? pat: in 1824, jackson was not quite sure he was ready to be president. when he won the vote and it was stolen from him, he knew he was meant to be president. he thought the election had stolen the people's presidency. when he came out in 1828, he came out fighting. susan: what was interesting about the campaign was that it was a precursor to modern campaigning. he and his surrogates for out on the stump. as many as 800,000 more americans voted in that election as they had in the previous ones the -- the previous one. how had he thought of that? michael: it was the growing development of a national party that martin van buren had been working on with people in the south. this was a time of great technological change. we had railroads and n

and one of the deals that was probably made was that henry clay would become the vice president and adamsould win the election. and that was seen as a corrupt bargain. and so, once we come out of that election, the whole buildup to the next election is that was a corrupt bargain. susan swain: ok, i need to clarify. you just described 1824, setting the stage for 1828. michael henderson: yes, sorry, yes. susan swain: yes. so, the 1828 campaign was basically old enmities brought together again. so, how did the 1828 play out? pat brady: well, in 1824 jackson wasn't quite sure that he was ready to be president, he wasn't quite sure he was the right man. and, however, when he won the vote and then it was stolen from him, then he knew he was meant to be president, and that election he thought had stolen the people's presidency. when he came out in 1828, he came out fighting. michael henderson: yes. susan swain: and what's interesting about the campaign in so many ways, it was really a presage of modern campaigning and the fact that he and his surrogates were out on the stump as it were. and i re

these ideals and urged patrick henry and other virginian politicians to oppose them as the argument raised he died of an infection. the political parties supported john adams. the federalist accidentally he was an inept and unlikely politician and abnormal men at any rate the enterprise faltered badly and jefferson became the nation's 3rd person. i was going to end this book and i would in this talk i thought maybe i had said everything worth saying. i began began researching jefferson's presidency and changed my mind. it is crucial to understand why and how this quarrel with washington became a great divide. the opposite of washington's style and policy and the burst of somewhat probably reprehensible inspiration. i call him the on washington president. instead of addressing congress each year jefferson sent a message that was red. he received visitors in dc. i dc. they moved down they're when he became president. received visitors at his residence in clothes so old tattered one man thought he was a janitor. a janitor. he could not have gotten away with this in philadelphia on new york. but in washington dc there were only about 4000 people in the whole p

henry ford at the dawn of the american century. we have the author of "the wright brothers" with us right here david mccullough. you've done it again, sir. >> thank you, chris. >> john adamsrry truman and now you've discovered it's like discovering the statue of liberty like lee iacocca and there it was all the time we grew up reading the landmark series, "the wright brothers," how do you do this? how do you find the iconic american story that others have walked past and not stopped to examine? >> i don't know. i've reached a stage in my working life and in my life when i'm look ging back at what i've been doing. i never thought too much about is there a theme or is there the repeating approach or whatever but i realize that almost everybody that i've written about was out to accomplish something difficult against the odds, against public opinion or even against -- in the face of public ridicule but would not give up. george washington would not give up in 1776 when everything was going against him. harry truman would not give up all through his life particularly 1948 and these two do not give up. this isn't just that they have ambition and incredible intelligence and ins

patrick henry was there, the great hero of a revolution and in a letter to john adams, the quality of leaders in the room, he wrote to adams i cannot count on one coadjutor of talent equal to the task. madison the young and small and shy was making himself known. a draft of the constitution's religious freedom claus was introduced by george mason famously later of the bill of rights. madison stood to object and suggest a replacement. this was his first real impact on public life. nation's clause stated all men should enjoy the full list toleration and exercise of religion. madison's version said men should be equally entitled to the free exercise of religion. that was a fundamental shift because says the state was on the position of the creeping freedom that said men had freedom for the state had anything to say about it. pat end ed up becoming our establishment of religion idea that became in the bill of rights many years later. after two months of work on a new constitution patrick henry was elected, revolutionary virginia first governor, madison became a delegate. the next spring m
