SUMMARY:TOUR: Art Deco architecture in Midtown Manhattan
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by the Scarsdale Adult School. Information and registration\, click here. \nWhat would Manhattan be without its Roaring Twenties modernistic art deco skyscrapers? East 42nd Street\, Midtown Manhattan’s major boulevard of art deco skyscrapers\, is home to Raymond Hood’s red-and-white striped Daily News building (which starred as the Daily Planet in the Superman movies)\, and the one and only Chrysler Building\, once the world’s tallest\, whose architect\, William Van Alen\, was called the Ziegfeld of his profession. A few blocks to the north\, the spectacularly geometric General Electric Building stands just a block away from the more sedate but still iconic Waldorf-Astoria. The walk concludes with a look at midtown’s miraculously urbane urban wonderland\, Rockefeller Center.

DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by the Municipal Art Society (M.A.S.) Reservations required – WATCH THIS SPACE FOR A RESERVATIONS LINK. $30 ($20 MAS members). \nA meandering walk across the upper west tracts of the Upper West Side\, from West 85th to 103rd streets.

SUMMARY:TOUR: Grand Central Terminal
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by the New York Botanical Garden\, Members Trips. (To take this tour\, you must be a member of the Botanical Garden – click here for membership details.) Reservations required: call 1-718-817-8703\, email membership@nybg.org\, or click here (scroll down to find the tour) to register on-line. \nOn February 1st\, 1913\, the brand-new Grand Central Terminal opened its doors to an admiring public. On February 1st\, 2013\, the beautifully restored Terminal – rescued from destruction by a seminal 1978 Supreme Court decision – celebrated its Centennial\, accompanied by exhibitions\, events\, and the new book: Grand Central Terminal: 100 Years of a New York Landmark. The Terminal’s creation combined engineering bravado (sinking two train yards below ground)\, technological wizardry (electrifying the trains to eliminate steam and enable their underground functioning)\, and real-estate savvy (replacing the original street-level train yard with 16 blocks of newly prime Midtown Manhattan real-estate\, whose development paid for it all) with innovative planning (interior ramps and looping tracks) and Paris-inspired Beaux-Arts design. This walking tour brings the Terminal to life – its remarkable history\, stunning architecture\, and central role in creating midtown Manhattan.

SUMMARY:TOUR: The fabulous Broadway theaters - Times Square Reborn
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by the Scarsdale Adult School. Information and registration\, click here. \nWalk the streets of the Great White Way? as we trace the history of New York’s Broadway theater district from Oscar Hammerstein in the 1890s to Walt Disney in the 1990s. With a century of history behind them\, the 40 surviving Broadway theaters stand as stunning works of art in themselves\, as well as monuments to the lively history of American theater. Many were built as lavish headquarters for Broadway’s great impresarios\, who spared no expense in their decor. The Belasco Theater on 44th Street was designed to the specifications of the extravagant David Belasco\, the self-styled “Bishop of Broadway”? who\, among other eccentricities\, wore a clerical collar. The Little Theater\, built for aristocratic New England producer Winthrop Ames\, originally sat a tiny audience of 300; its precious Georgian style facade looks less like a typical Broadway theater than a Colonial New England manor house. Producer John Cort’s theater was designed as a recreation of the Petit Trianon in Versailles. Today these jewels sparkle among all the brash new skyscrapers that have transformed the once dingy and dangerous Times Square. The tour includes it all: theaters\, skyscrapers\, and city planning at its most controversial.

DESCRIPTION:Reservations required. Sponsored by the Municipal Art Society. $30 ($20 for MAS members). Information and registration: 212-935-3960 – WATCH THIS SPACE FOR A RESERVATION LINK \nTowering above the narrow streets of the old Dutch colony of Nieuw Amsterdam are some of the country’s finest zigzag and streamlined delights\, glittering pinnacles of Wall Street prosperity\, monuments to the high-flying corporations of 1920s banking\, oil\, and telecommunications. Unrivaled skyscraper designs include Ralph Walker’s Gothic Modern fantasy of the Irving Trust tower and the Art Deco–encrusted Cities Service headquarters\, plus some lesser-known jewels in the insurance district on John Street.

Reservations required: call 1-718-817-8703\, email membership@nybg.org\, or click here (scroll down to find the tour) to register on-line. \nPerhaps best-known of New York’s official “Scenic Landmarks\,” Central Park offers New Yorkers refuge\, recreation and rejuvenation; a temporary haven from a city of brick and steel\, concrete and glass. And yet this park which delights us with its lakes and streams\, wildflowers and grand open spaces\, is almost entirely artificial\, carefully designed right down to the hidden pipes feeding a rustic waterfall.

SUMMARY:BOOK TALK: "New York Art Deco: A Guide to Gotham's Jazz Age Architecture"
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by the Scarsdale Adult School. Information and registration\, click here. \nThe Chrysler Building\, the Waldorf-Astoria\, Rockefeller Center– these are among the hundreds of Art Deco monuments that during the 1920s and ‘30s helped create the image of New York City as the world’s Modern Metropolis. In New York\, Art Deco evolved through a series of Manhattan skyscrapers into the city’s chief architectural language. Following a massive reawakening of interest in them during the 1970s\, New York’s Deco buildings today survive as prized remnants of a distant yet modern past that still help define the city’s visual identity. \nThe lecture covers the great skyscrapers of architects Raymond Hood\, William Van Alen\, Ely Jacques Kahn and Ralph Walker\, including the Daily News\, Empire State\, Irving Trust\, General Electric\, American Radiator\, Barclay-Vesey and RCA Buildings. It then traces the adaptation of this “skyscraper style” through apartment buildings on the Bronx’s Grand Concourse\, airport terminals at LaGuardia\, the Central Park West residential skyline\, automated midtown parking garages\, diners\, hotels\, department stores\, banks\, and theaters. \nAfter the talk there will be a book signing for New York Art Deco: A Guide to Gotham’s Jazz Age Architecture (SUNY Press\, Excelsior Editions\, 2017).

SUMMARY:TOUR: Grand Central Terminal
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by the Scarsdale Adult School. $50.  Click here for information and registration. \nOn February 1st\, 1913\, the brand-new Grand Central Terminal opened its doors to an admiring public. On February 1st\, 2013\, the beautifully restored Terminal – rescued from destruction by a seminal 1978 Supreme Court decision – celebrated its Centennial\, accompanied by exhibitions\, events\, and the new book: Grand Central Terminal: 100 Years of a New York Landmark. The Terminal’s creation combined engineering bravado (sinking two train yards below ground)\, technological wizardry (electrifying the trains to eliminate steam and enable their underground functioning)\, and real-estate savvy (replacing the original street-level train yard with 16 blocks of newly prime Midtown Manhattan real-estate\, whose development paid for it all) with innovative planning (interior ramps and looping tracks) and Paris-inspired Beaux-Arts design. This walking tour brings the Terminal to life – its remarkable history\, stunning architecture\, and central role in creating midtown Manhattan.

SUMMARY:Tour: Manhattan's Art Deco Interiors
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by the Municipal Art Society. $30 ($20 MAS members). Reservations required. To register\, call 212-935-3960 or register on-line. \nThe phrase “Art Deco New York” generally conjures romantic images of Manhattan skyscrapers. But just as remarkable as the towers are their sumptuous interiors – which are also far more comfortable to visit on a cold winter’s day. On this tour\, we’ll visit the publicly accessible interiors of not quite half a dozen Deco marvels: the Daily News Building\, the Chrysler Building\, the Chanin Building\, the General Electric Building and the RCA Building at Rockefeller Center.
