Event Navigation

This year, 2015, marks the 50th anniversary of New York City’s Landmarks Law. Explore major moments in the growth of the preservation movement in four walks. On these tours, visit Margot Gayle’s Tribeca—the work of the legendary preservation pioneer who promoted the protection of the City’s cast-iron architecture; major landmarks battles in midtown Manhattan, including the Villard Houses, St. Bart’s, Lever House, and Grand Central Terminal; the reimagined Times Square/Broadway theatre district with preserved historic theatres; and SoHo, featuring 19th-century cast-iron buildings and 20th- and 21st-century neighbors, in an attempt to balance the original character with a modern sensibility.

Four Wednesday afternoons in April. Cost for the course: $190. April 8, 15, 22 and 29. To register for the course, click here.
