SUMMARY:Remembering Yesterday: Queens and Its World's Fairs
DESCRIPTION:Remembering is both a collective and a personal activity.  In this exhibition\, both are on display in relation to two World’s Fairs that took place in Flushing\, Queens in 1939/40 and 1964/65.  Within this exhibition\, collective memory is represented by shared experiences of the Fairs and personal memory by the memorabilia drawn from the collections of people who attended and fondly recall the Fairs.  While these Fairs were global in scope\, their attendees were overwhelmingly local\, many residing in Queens.  All items on display in the exhibition have either been donated or loaned to the Queens Historical Society by those residents of Queens who attended the Fairs. \nOpen Tuesdays\, Saturdays and Sundays\, 2:30 – 4:30 pm.  Through May 31\, 2015.

SUMMARY:The Last Unknown Place in New York City: A Conversation with Christopher Payne and Michael Miscione
DESCRIPTION:North Brother Island is a 20-acre collection of ruins in the middle of New York City. It was once home to a quarantine hospital and the residence of Typhoid Mary. Today it is a wildlife sanctuary\, abandoned and off-limits to visitors. Between 2008 and 2013\, photographer Christopher Payne was granted exclusive access to the island. He found buildings consumed by vegetation\, and hints of a city’s future without people. Payne will share his discoveries using images from his book\, North Brother Island: The Last Unknown Place in New York City (Fordham University Press\, 2014)\, and discuss North Brother’s remarkable history with Manhattan Borough Historian Michael Miscione.  Book signing and reception to follow. \nCo-sponsored by Open House New York (OHNY) and the Office of the Manhattan Borough Historian. \nTickets are free for MCNY members\, 12$ for students/seniors\, 16$ general admission PURCHASE/REGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Emerging Voices: Gabriela Etchegaray and Jorge Ambrosi; Neri Oxman
DESCRIPTION:Emerging Voices\nGabriela Etchegaray and Jorge Ambrosi\, AMBROSI | ETCHEGARAY\, Mexico City\nNeri Oxman\, Mediated Matter Group\, MIT Media Lab\, Cambridge\nIntroduced by Billie Tsien \nThe final evening of the annual Emerging Voices lecture series features Gabriela Etchegaray and Jorge Ambrosi of AMBROSI | ETCHEGARAY and Neri Oxman of Mediated Matter Group\, MIT Media Lab. Emerging Voices spotlights individuals and firms based in the United States\, Canada\, or Mexico with distinct design voices and the potential to influence the disciplines of architecture\, landscape architecture\, and urbanism. \nJorge Ambrosi and Gabriela Etchegaray founded Mexico City-based AMBROSI | ETCHEGARAY in 2011. The firm considers “architecture in harmony with nature\, where earth\, gravity and light must be present.” Current projects include Papalote Museo del Niño\, an outdoor “museography-landscape\,” as well as a collaboration with GMexico Mine Company to build cultural plazas and sports infrastructure in local communities. For more on AMBROSI | ETCHEGARAY\, click here. \nNeri Oxman founded Mediated Matter Group at the MIT Media Lab in 2010. Concerned with how “digital design and fabrication technologies mediate between matter and environment to radically transform the design and construction of objects\, buildings\, and systems\,” Mediated Matter Group’s research merges “computational form-finding strategies with biologically inspired fabrication.” For more on Mediated Matter Group\, click here. \nBillie Tsien is the partner and founder of Tod Williams Billie Tsein Architects. She is the president of The Architectural League and served on this year’s Emerging Voices committee. \nBUY $10 TICKETS BY CLICKING HERE!

SUMMARY:Great New York City Buildings Few Guide Books Will Ever Mention
DESCRIPTION:So you live in New York. Or maybe you’re just passing through. Guide books direct your attention to The Empire State Building\, The Chrysler Building\, Grand Central Station. Great buildings\, all of them. No doubt. World class historically important architectural masterpieces that people from all over the world come to see and experience for themselves. \nBut wouldn’t it be cool if\, for example\, while you’re waiting on line for pizza at Grimaldi’s in Dumbo with your out-of -town friend\, you glance across the street and point out the incredible building facing you. You point out its monumental arch\, unique brass lettering and incredibly thick masonry walls. You’re able to explain how it was originally used as a storage facility for the rich. That it was designed by probably the greatest Brooklyn architect of his time\, but who few people actually have ever heard of. Wouldn’t that be cool? \nThis class will look at a bunch of these types of buildings. Buildings that you might pass without noticing\, but which have their own rich history and significance in the New York City architectural vernacular. Buildings that make New York\, well….New York. We’ll discuss the when and the why. The who and the “so what”. We’ll discuss their place in New York architectural history as well as their place in American Architectural history in general. \nSo the next time your parents come to visit for the um-teenth time\, instead of waiting in line for a tour of the New York Public Library\, you’ll be able to drag them deep into Brooklyn\, or Chelsea\, or the Bronx to show them some real New York architecture that few guides or guide books would ever mention. \n\nTaught by Stephen Dargo \nStephen Dargo is a practicing architect with a Masters of Architecture degree from Columbia University.  Though he works full time at an established architecture firm in Manhattan\, he also finds time to enjoy happy hour\, root for the Red Sox/Patriots and pretend that he is Ted Mosby from “How I Met Your Mother.” \nPlease register here: http://brooklynbrainery.com/courses/great-new-york-city-buildings-few-guide-books-will-ever-mention
