McKim Lecture at the ICA on March 12th
On Wednesday, March 12th, The Institute of Classical Architecture & Classical America will present their seventh annual McKim Lecture in New York City.
The theme of this years lecture will be New York’s Pennsylvania Stations and will include a review of current developments over the future of a new Pennsylvania Station in the General Post Office building nearby.
Dr. Hillary Ballon, distinguished historian, scholar and author will present the lecture. She has been called “one of the most important architectural historians in America today”.
“Her scholarship has focused on cities and the intersection of architecture, political and social life in Twentieth century America and seventeenth century Europe”.
The wonderful steel and glass “conservatory-like” Pennsylvania station is an inspiration to all of us interested in the great classical designs of the past.
