Join Nat Oppenheimer and Justin Davidson, contributing authors to the new volume of essays Beyond Architecture: The NEW New York (NYRB 2024), as they discuss the themes of their pieces, "The Long View: Building for Rebuilding" and "Engineering Landmarks," together with Skyscraper Museum director Carol Willis.
Beyond Architecture: The NEW New York commemorates the 60th anniversary of the passage of the New York City Landmarks Law, which established the Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) and initiated the era of historic preservation in New York City. Commissioned by the NYC Landmarks60 Alliance, the book's contributors are architects and engineers, critics, and preservationists who explore the impact, legacy, and current and future status of historic preservation in New York City.
In-person attendance is free but limited to 50 people (RSVP required). The event will also be live streamed on the Skyscraper Museum YouTube channel.
