The Municipal Art Society's new walking tour guide
|
|
| The Municipal Art Society, long known for its various public and private tours throughout the city, officially launches its new guide, The Municipal Art Society of New York—10 Architectural Walks in Manhattan, today. Each route may easily be taken as a self-guided tour, as the publication includes detailed directions, easy-to-use maps, and more than 200 color photographs. Eminent society tour leaders Francis Morrone and Matthew A. Postal's guide includes excursions to Central Park, Grand Central Terminal, Park Avenue's corporate towers, the Flatiron district, Midtown's Art Deco landmarks, and two routes that take in downtown and the financial district, including a walk that examines areas around the World Trade Center site.
The book is a suitable gift for out-of-town visitors or city residents, and it could serve as the basis for a group excursion, if you're looking for a cheaper, D.I.Y. approach to teambuilding this summer. It retails for $29.95, and is available through Urban Center Books.
