On August 19, join the young professionals of the Cross-Learning Alliance for a bike tour of some of NYC’s newest and most intriguing projects. The tour will start at the Manhattan West Courtyard and will end at the Bean Sculpture in Tribeca. Along the way, we’ll hear from Skidmore, Owings & Merrill about the new Moynihan Connector on the High Line, from Dattner Architects about the Spring Street Salt Shed, and from Hill West Architects about 56 Leonard St (aka the Jenga Tower) at the end of the tour.
After the tour, we’ll head to Pier 26 to grab brunch and mingle. Bring your own bike or rent one, and don’t forget a helmet.
This tour is capped at 20 people, so register today!
