Building of the Day: New York Hall of Science (Group 1)

New York Hall of Science's (NYSCI) Great Hall was designed by Wallace K. Harrison for the 1964 World's Fair and is one of the few structures that remains standing. Harrison's design is made up of 100-foot-high undulating walls with 5,000+ cobalt-blue dalle de verre panels set into the structure. The Great Hall is one of the most remarkable spaces in the city, on par with Grand Central Terminal's main concourse and NYPL's Rose Reading Room.

Tour ticket includes same-day free general admission to New York Hall of Science.

Please note: this tour is accessible by wheelchair.

Original Architect: Wallace K. Harrison

Meeting location will be emailed to registered attendees the day before the tour.
