Description
Among New York City’s architects and building buffs, October is Archtober—or Architecture and Design Month. The City’s design community opens its doors for scores of tours, lectures, films and celebrations, offering behind-the-scenes peeks at the buildings that give this metropolis its distinct character, throughout all five boroughs. This year marks the event’s 15th anniversary with the theme “Shared Spaces,” envisioning a world in which space and resources are shared responsibly. Past participants include some of the City’s more popular attractions—the Museum of Modern Art, Cooper Hewitt, the Guggenheim, the AIA New York and its Center for Architecture, Central Park Conservancy and the National September 11 Memorial & Museum among them—as well as more underground experiences like Secrets of Grand Central and tours of the Green-Wood Cemetery catacombs.
