New York Transformed: The Architecture of Cross & Cross
June 3, 2014 |
Architect Peter Pennoyer and architectural historian Anne Walker, authors of New York Transformed (The Monacelli Press, 2014), will speak about two of the 20th century’s most important, yet largely forgotten, architects, brothers John and Eliot Cross, in a conversation moderated by Donald Albrecht. Cross & Cross’s work included such iconic buildings as the General Electric Building, Tiffany’s, and luxurious apartment buildings 720 Park Avenue and One Sutton Place South—these latter two in collaboration with Rosario Candela. Pennoyer and Walker, who will sign books, will also discuss the Cross brothers’ real estate ventures, including the development of Sutton Place.
Co-sponsored by the Institute of Classical Art & Architecture and The Monacelli Press.
