Join us on an exciting walking tour of the ever-changing architecture of Southwest Midtown Manhattan. Focusing on locations in close proximity to 34th Street, we’ll be exploring iconic landmarks such as The Farley Post Office, Madison Square Garden, The Macy’s Building, and others. After an historic review, we will discuss the varieties of design that dot the Midtown skyline. Be sure to wear some comfortable shoes and have your camera at the ready to capture both the classic and contemporary architecture that helps define New York City. We’ll be meeting at the new Plaza33, located on 7th Avenue at 33rd Street, directly adjacent to the newly renovated Penn 2 building, and concluding at the same location. It will be a fun and educational experience for all!
