- NYC Parks Department press
release 15 May 1934: "The Park Department announced today that
construction will be resumed immediately on the golf clubhouse at Dyker
Beach Park in Brooklyn ... The Building is 60% completed. It has been under
construction for about a year and a Half. The work was financed through the
old City Work Committee and the former Civil Works Administration
... Mr. Aymar Embury, II, Consulting architect, Major Gilmore
D. Clarke, Consulting Landscape Architect, and Mr. Emil K. Praeger,
Consulting Civil Engineer, of the Park Department, made a complete
investigation of the structure and found that there were many features which
require correction before the building can be occupied with safety." Thus,
regardless of who the original architect was, Embury had a hand in the
construction and final configuration of the building.
