Lost New York
Showcasing treasures from the museum's collection of historical objects, "Lost New York" illustrates the changing city and the importance of preserving pieces of our otherwise vanishing past. The exhibition invites visitors to explore the landmarks, landscapes, pastimes, environments, monuments, communities, and modes of transportation that once defined NYC.
Learn about bygone eras of river swimming, high-wheel bike riding, elevated railways, the original Penn Station, the old Croton Reservoir, the Chinese Theater, Seneca Village, the Central Park Hooverville, the fake window decals of the 1980s, and Bowling Green's monument to King George III.
Admission is pay-as-you-wish from 5–8 pm on Fridays.
Venue: New-York Historical Society
New-York Historical Society, 2 West 77th Street New York, NY, 10024 United States
