SUMMARY:LECTURE: The Twin Towers - Remembering the World Trade Center
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by the Scarsdale Adult School. For information and reservations\, click here. \nNow that more than a decade has passed since the disaster of September 11th\, 2001\, and a new World Trade Center rises on the site\, we can begin to remember what the original was like — “a city-within-a-city” that housed 50\,000 employees\, and welcomed 80\,000 to 100\,000 visitors every day to its Twin Towers\, briefly the tallest structures in the world. \nBased on the book Classics of American Architecture: The World Trade Center\, this lecture reviews the story of its creation\, post-World War II Downtown redevelopment\, the origins of the Trade Center concept\, the search for an architect\, the evolution of the design\, the urge to build the world’s tallest buildings\, the engineering feats required for the towers’ construction\, and the critical response. It is offered as a reminder of a more innocent time\, when the Center stood as a symbol\, certainly\, of hubris\, wealth and power\, but also of the conviction that in New York\, Americans could do anything to which they set their minds.

SUMMARY:TOUR: SoHo Historic District
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by the Municipal Art Society. Reservations required ($30\, but $20 for MAS members). Click here for information and registration. \nSoHo today is home to the world’s greatest trove of cast-iron buildings. Cast-iron architecture began as a mid-19th-century cheap imitation of stone\, in which the glories of the world’s past could be offered in modern times in mass-produced\, ready-to-build versions. But cast-iron soon developed into a remarkable technology expressive of the industrial revolution\, capable of entirely new architectural effects. Threatened by a proposed Lower Manhattan Expressway\, SoHo was rescued from near obliteration in 1973 by designation as one of the city’s earliest historic districts. This tour considers the district’s original architecture as well as new Commission-approved additions.

SUMMARY:TOUR: Central Park as a Work of Art
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. \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.
