The Candela Allure

Rosario Candela played a major role in shaping the architectural legacy of twentieth-century New York. Today, his buildings rank among the most prized in the city, almost one hundred years after they were built. What gives Candela’s designs such an enduring appeal? Inspired by our upcoming exhibition, “Elegance in the Sky: The Architecture of Rosario Candela”, curator Donald Albrecht leads a conversation on the history, design, and marketability of these famed addresses with architecture critic Paul Goldberger, architect Peter Pennoyer, and New York real estate executive Elizabeth Stribling.

Reception and exhibition viewing to follow. This forum is made possible by The New York Landmarks Preservation Foundation.
