Join Landmark West! to explore the most notable modern and contemporary architecture in the Lincoln Center area and learn about its history. A unique chapter in the story of urban renewal, Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, was the nation’s first performing arts complex. 

Its all-star design team included Harrison & Abramovitz, Philip Johnson, Eero Saarinen, Gordon Bunshaft and Dan Kiley. The tour will touch on whether contemporary interventions designed by Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Hugh Hardy and others enhance or detract from the original 16-acre campus. 

Led by John Arbuckle, DOCOMOMO US/New York Tri-State President, the tour will also visit several significant modern schools nearby, including PS199 by Edward Durell Stone. It will conclude with the most recent residential developments in the area, some very controversial.
