The Business Core tour of the Museum's three thematic walking tours of Battery Park City will focus on the commercial core with its 1980s skyscrapers of the original World Financial Center (now Brookfield Place) by architect Cesar Pelli, as well as the expansive North Cove Marina and its public realm. This walk will investigate how the planning concept of public-private partnership was both the principle and economic engine of the Battery Park City project and how the goals of opening the waterfront to public access and recreation was realized over three decades.
This tour will meet under the palm trees at the Winter Garden at Brookfield Place. Registration for each tour is limited to 25 people. Any updates for bad-weather cancellations will be sent to your email address.
