Hello,

We hope this message finds you well. Thank you so much for your past participation in and support of WFUV’s Cityscape. Coming up this weekend, Cityscape will be showcasing some of the most interesting characters and places featured on the show over the years, from a singing sanitation worker to the Hua Mei Bird Garden in Manhattan’s Chinatown. This “best of” edition of Cityscape is part of WFUV’s spring membership drive. If you appreciate our weekly exploration of the people, places and spirit of New York City, we invite you to show your support in the form of a financial contribution during the show on Saturday morning (4/21/12) between 7:30 to 8. You can come on board as a card-carrying member of WFUV with any amount. But, for a contribution of $50, we’ll thank you with a signed copy of Frank Jump’s Fading Ads of New York City. We are very thankful to Mr. Jump for his gracious contribution to our fund drive. He is a previous guest of Cityscape. You can check out that episode here.

You can make a contribution to Cityscape at any time between 7:30 and 8 am this Saturday by calling 1-877-938-8907 or on-line at www.wfuv.org. We would love to thank you on the air early in the show, so don’t hesitate to jump right in.

Thank you again! Have a great weekend.

Previously a coffee house for workers where only beer was served in a time when the Teetotalers Movement was having influence in Amsterdam, this establishment is now a restaurant on the quiet and beautiful Kadijkplein, overlooking the National Maritime Museum (Het Scheepvaartmuseum).

These coffeehouses were built by employers to keep the working class from drinking too much alcohol. Coupons were handed out to get free coffee when there wasn’t enough work to go around. The only alcohol being served in a Coffeehouse was beer. Many of these Coffeehouses were demolished, but this one at Kadijksplein 4 got squatted in 1986 and saved from destruction. It’s been serving as a restaurant ever since. This is the old entrance. Arne Kuilman – Flickrstream
