Art Deco East 42nd Street

[In-person tour] This tour focuses on three of the finest Deco monuments in Midtown: the Daily News Building by Raymond Hood (1929), the Chanin Building by Sloane & Robertson (1927), and the Chrysler Building by William Van Alen (1930). Also included: the former American Radiator Building (Hood’s first in New York), the artsy East 44th Street cluster of the Beaux-Arts Institute and Beaux-Arts Apartments (Art Deco in style despite the names), and a look at nearby Tudor City, a classic example of what the city was building just before Art Deco hit town. Anthony W. Robins is the author of the award-winning New York Art Deco: A Guide to Gotham’s Jazz Age Architecture.
