On this small-group exploration of Midtown Manhattan, delve into the evolution of the city’s architecture, from the late-19th century through today. Starting in Tudor City at 2nd Avenue, proceed down 42nd Street to Times Square in the company of an architecture expert and long-time New York resident. Discuss the varied roles the street has played in the last two centuries, from a gated community and commuter hub, to the red light and theater districts. Learn the visual language of such architectural movements as Beaux Arts, Art Deco, and the International Style while studying the interiors and exteriors of iconic structures like the Chrysler Building, the Daily News Building, the Ford Foundation, Grand Central Terminal, and the New York Public Library. Along the way, discuss the city’s rapid expansion northward during the first half of the 20th century, the key role Midtown played in this, and how Manhattan’s built environment continues to evolve today. Since this is a small-group tour, there is plenty of time for questions and dialogue throughout the tour.Additional InformationConfirmation will be received at time of bookingMinimum age is 13 years oldAdult pricing applies to all travelersA minimum of two people per group booking is requiredInclusionsLocal guideSmall-group walking tourExclusionsGratuities (optional)Departure PointManhattan, NY (specific address provided on voucher)Departure Time10amDuration3 hoursVoucher InfoYou can present either a paper or an electronic voucher for this activity.The tour identified in this promotion is made available through Viator.
