Book Talk- Beyond Architecture: The NEW New York

Beyond Architecture: The NEW New York is a volume of essays that commemorate 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 have moved “beyond architecture” to explore varied aspects of the impact, legacy, and current and future status of historic preservation in New York City.

Two contributing authors, Justin Davidson and Nat Oppenheimer, will discuss the themes of their essays, “The Long View: Building for Rebuilding” and “Engineering Landmarks,” and join in dialogue with Skyscraper Museum Director Carol Willis.
