Quest Courses – Spring 2023 / History and Philosophy / NYC NEIGHBORHOODS

Coordinators: Paul Golomb, Bob Reiss

New York City is a tapestry. It is a 400-year development entailing subsequent waves of immigration and architectural styles. We will focus in each session on a definitive neighborhood, describing its history, architectural and topographic features, significant landmarks, course of development, and its contribution to the City as a whole.

Where possible, walking tours will be scheduled.
