Course Schedule – Spring 2024 / History and Philosophy / NYC AND ITS ENVIRONS: PEOPLE, PLACES, THINGS
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.
