How to Make a Subway Map with John Tauranac
Hear from an author and map designer who has been creating maps of the NYC subway, officially and unofficially, for over forty years!
Once the tallest skyscraper in downtown New York City, the landmarked Art Deco Skyscraper 70 Pine has been inaccessible to the public for decades, due to the changing fortunes of the Wall Street companies that owned it. Fresh off a three year renovation by Rose Associates, the skyscraper has been transformed into both a prime residential property as well as a retail destination, anchored amidst gorgeous Art Deco details.
When the restaurant is completed, the 66th floor will likely take the title for highest eatery in New York City, above the Rainbow Room at Rockefeller Center. We can’t say enough how beautiful this building is, from the marble lobby to the wraparound terraces on the observation decks, to the spire, which was designed to resemble a mountain. We were beyond excited to photograph the building in December for our Secrets of 70 Pine article, and we are pleased to be able to provide access to our readers this month.
