Mayor Robert Van Wyck records

Collection REC0005 - RG 001. Office of the Mayor of the City of New York

Collection REC0005 - RG 001/RG 001.RVW. Office of the Mayor, Robert Van Wyck

This collection consists of the subject files and correspondence of Mayor Robert Van Wyck's administration. The collection is by no means exhaustive and consists primarily of letters received by the Mayor's office. Very rarely is his response included. There are also memoranda, petitions, reports, scrapbooks, copies of speeches, mayoral edicts and announcements, appointment books, records of complaints, and investigations into the work of city agencies, among other materials. The materials are particularly strong in documenting the workings of the city during its consolidation into one city with five boroughs. A typed item-level inventory is available in the archives.
