Behold a bygone New York! Explore the landmarks, vistas, pastimes, environments, monuments, communities, and modes of transportation that once defined this city with a docent-led tour of our exhibition Lost New York. "Losses" include river swimming, high-wheel bike riding, elevated railways, the original Penn Station, the old Croton Reservoir, the Chinese Theater, Seneca Village, the Central Park Hooverville, the fake window decals of the 1980s, and Bowling Green's monument to King George III.
Showcasing treasures from the New-York Historical Society’s trove of historical objects, Lost New York speaks to both the dynamism of an ever-changing city and the importance of preserving pieces of our otherwise vanishing past.
