Summary
[In-person] Starting on the far east side of Midtown at posh Beekman Place, we visit a handful of modernistic residences ranging from the former Panhellenic Tower, a redoubt for young professional women taking on the big city in the 1920s, to the fabulously wealthy River House to the more modestly middle-class Southgate apartments. Pushing westward into the commercial heart of Midtown we visit the spectacular but lesser-known General Electric Building (originally built for RCA) and continue with the Waldorf-Astoria, New York’s preeminent skyscraper hotel. We close with a brief look at Rockefeller Center, midtown Manhattan’s urbane urban wonderland. Anthony W. Robins is the author of the award-winning New York Art Deco: A Guide to Gotham’s Jazz Age Architecture.
