Art and Architecture of the Subway
February 10, 2013 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm
$15 – $20
Municipal Art Society presents a tour featuring the art, architecture and history of New York’s subway system:
“On this tour with architectural historian Anthony W. Robins, we will ride the rails from the Battery to Midtown, and consider the three major phases of subway design: the original 1904 IRT, the Dual Contracts extensions of the ‘teens and the modernistic Independent Line that opened in 1932, with a peek at a ’70s redesign by Philip Johnson. Bring an unlimited MetroCard or one with at least three fares. Don’t miss the tour that CBS called one of the five best art walks in New York! $20 / $15 Members.”
