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!
Did you know Untapped New York’s founder Michelle Young and CEO Augustin Pasquet wrote the book Secret Brooklyn? Tomorrow, they’ll be hosting a virtual talk, presenting the outdoor locations from the book you can still discover in these social distancing times. As explorers, you might all be currently mostly indoors but there are some obscure outdoor locations far from the madding crowds that can be found in Secret Brooklyn, like tracing the footprints of a Revolutionary War-era mill in Marine Park, looking for the wild parrots of Brooklyn, locating a sunken yellow submarine, or hiking on the former Ridgewood Reservoir, and more.
You can also get an autographed copy of this book from us, with a dedication of your choice! Use code STAYHOME for free shipping! This live talk is organized exclusively for Untapped New York’s Insiders and you can get two free months of Insiders membership with code STAYHOME. The talk will be broadcasted via Zoom and Insiders will have the ability to ask questions Michelle and Augustin during the talk. They’re 2.5 year old daughter Charlotte, who is definitely more popular on social media than they are might put in her two cents.
Can’t join this live virtual talk? Don’t worry, a video of the talk will be made available to all our Insiders afterwards in a members-only section of the website.
