Patented Two-in-One Magazine and Driver System
This dual-purpose tool has a patented two-in-one magazine and driver system that accommodates both cleats and staples. Designed for 15.5- and 16-gauge staples from 1 to 2 inches, and "L" cleats from 1-1/2 to 2 inches, the magazine has a 100 staple/cleat capacity. Loading the fastener is quick and easy--simply pull the magazine back, drop in the fasteners, and release the drawer--it takes less than 10 seconds.
Precise Air-Powered Operation
The Ramsond RMM4 operates with the power of compressed air (60 - 120 PSI) and is equipped with a standard 1/4-inch NPT air inlet for easy compatibility. To use, simply attach your air compressor's hose to the RMM4's air inlet, then rest the nose of the RMM4 squarely against your work surface to fire.
The direction and angle of the staple/cleat will be automatically aligned for precision driving. And with only a slight strike of the mallet upon the actuator, the RMM4 will shoot a cleat nail or staple through your flooring at the proper angle and depth.
Patented Air-Booster Chambers
Most conventional flooring nailers/staplers store compressed air within the body of the tool. Upon mallet strike, the air reserved in the body of the tool is released, driving the blade and shooting the fastener. The RMM4 takes this design one step further. In addition to storing compressed air inside its body, the RMM4 continuously stores compressed air in two patented air acceleration/booster chambers located in the handle.
By storing extra compressed air, these sealed chambers ensure that the fasteners shoot with sufficient force for perfect penetration in the flooring surface. The booster chambers also accommodate quicker retraction of the actuator and blade when compared with conventional units.
Non-Marring Base System
Featuring an adjustable non-marring base system, the RMM4 provides protection against scratches and allows you to drive fasteners fast and close to the wall. The base system is equipped with two composite disks in the front, a middle guide, and a rear nylon-derivative plate. The combination of these three mechanisms ensures that the surface of your hardwood flooring is not marred or damaged during installation. It also provides for tool balance and optimal positioning against the work surface for fast, accurate installation.
Works with Most Thicknesses of Hardwood Flooring
The RMM4 series is suitable for virtually all thickness of hardwood flooring (1/2 inch, 5/8 inch, 3/4 inch, and 25/32 inch). It comes with two nylon composite base plates--simply install the appropriate base plate for your application.
Durable and Comfortable
With over 30,000 units sold in North America, the RMM4 is sure to deliver on its promises. Designed for long-term use, the Ramsond RMM4 is an industrial-strength power tool that's comfortable to use. Its body is constructed of a durable, lightweight die-cast alloy, and its driver blade is constructed of heat-treated hardened steel for long-lasting resilience. For user comfort, the RMM4 has a long-reach handle with a padded cushioned grip that offers increased balance and control.
The RMM4 Two-in-One Hardwood Flooring Stapler and Cleat Nailer is manufactured under strict ISO guidelines for quality control and safety, and it is backed by a one-year warranty.

Summary

The twenty-story Whitehall Building, named for Peter Stuyvesant's seventeenth-century house that had been located nearby, was constructed in 1902-04 and designed by the preeminent turn-of- the-century architect Henry J. Hardenbergh. This highly visible site at the southernmost tip of Manhattan, overlooking Battery Park, inspired the architect to create a building with bold design features and a dramatic color scheme. Built as a speculative office tower by the real estate and development firm of Robert A. and William H. Chesebrough, the building was an immediate success and the developers began plans to build an addition. They hired the prolific architectural firm of Clinton & Russell to design a thirty-one-story addition facing West Street, with a tower overlooking the original building. Constructed in 1908-10, the Greater Whitehall, as the addition was called, was the largest office structure in the city at the time of its completion. The building's huge size coupled with its location on landfill at the edge of Manhattan island created the need for unusual types of foundations and methods for their installation. The elegant limestone facade, designed in a neo-Renaissance style with a traditional organization of base, shaft, and capital complements the original structure. Together the two sections of the building create a dramatic visual introduction to the towers of Manhattan.

DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS

Lower Manhattan and the Battery Place Realty Company

The southernmost tip of Manhattan was the area first inhabited by the European settlers. One of the first building projects of the Dutch settlers was Fort Amsterdam, located just south of what is now Bowling Green Park. In 1655, Governor Peter Stuyvesant built his home called "the White Hall" at the intersection of what is now Whitehall and State Streets. Development was clustered in this part of lower Manhattan with a resulting density of population. Beginning with the Dutch, New Yorkers began using landfill, or filling in lots under water, to create more useable land. In this way the land which is now Battery Park, among other areas, was created.

The entire block of West Street, from Battery Place to Morris Street was also built upon land filling in the Hudson River during the early years of the nineteenth century. The earliest occupants of this block purchased standard twenty-five-foot lots and constructed individual houses on them. Over the course of the nineteenth century, the city's increasing population, changes in the location of prestigious residential neighborhoods, as well as changes in types of businesses and their needs meant that residences relocated farther uptown, leaving lower Manhattan primarily for business use. In the 1870s, piers were first constructed along the west side of the island and the facing blocks began to be used for warehouses and other commercial purposes.

Beginning in 1901 the Battery Place Realty Company, a privately-held development company, purchased numerous lots on the southern end of the block bounded by West, Washington, and Morns Streets, and Battery Place. By 1904 their ownership extended to the first 150 feet of the block facing both West and Washington Streets. Battery Place Realty Company was owned and operated by Robert A. Chesebrough and his son William H. Chesebrough. The Chesebroughs were descended from a family who had come to America in 1830, and they inhented extensive family real estate holdings.

In the mid 1850s, Robert Chesebrough (1837- 1933) was working as a chemist in an illuminating-oil business. Intrigued by stories of a miraculous healing substance that formed as a residue of petroleum on the rods of pumps in the oil fields, he attempted to create the material in the laboratory. After years of research,- in 1870 he invented and patented the substance known as Vaseline Petroleum Jelly, basing the name on the Saxon word for water, wasser, and the Greek word for oil. oleon. He formed the Chesebrough Manufactunng Company and set up a refinery in Brooklyn. The company opened a sales office in London and soon established subsidiaries in France and Spain. This company was bought by Standard Oil in 1881, with Robert Chesebrough remaining at its head until 1909.

During this time, Robert Chesebrough was involved in numerous civic activities including a run for Congress in 1894. Building on his family's existing holdings, he invested in considerable amounts of New York real estate with his oldest son, William H. Chesebrough (1867-1917) and helped organize the New York Real Estate Exchange. The Chesebrough's Battery Place Realty Company erected several office skyscrapers close to Battery Park. They include the Chesebrough, the South Ferry, the Battery Place, and the Maritime Buildings (all demolished), which almost filled the two blocks south of the U. S. Customs House between State Street and Broadway, and
