Global Cities at the Crossroads is a public symposium hosted in the heart of New York City’s Midtown West, an area experiencing extraordinary growth and change and in many ways the last developable frontier in Manhattan. MAS is a longtime advocate for the revitalization of this pivotal district, where tens of thousands commute, work, shop, live and create adjacent to Pennsylvania Station, the most crucial transportation hub in the Northeast.
