[In-person tour] Rediscover the many Art Deco landmarks designed by the remarkably influential Raymond Hood (1881-1934). This walking tour with architecture historian James Russiello will stretch around Midtown chasing the work of the most famous architects to hit it big later in life and pass away too soon. Contemporary opinions were mixed on Hood’s work, with Frank Lloyd Wright considering him an “opportune New York Functioneer…climber onto the latest bandwagon, regardless, determined to hold or drive!” Learn how this Pawtucket, Rhode Island-born architect rose to be considered “the greatest architect in New York.”
