Hidden Landmarks of New York - Tommy Silk author event

New York is a city of landmarks – more than 37,000 of them. Visitors and New Yorkers walk by hundreds of these landmarks daily, often never knowing the rich history behind each of these buildings. One of these New Yorkers, Tommy Silk, has been photographing and chronicling a landmarked building every day for the last five years on his Instagram account, Landmarks of NY. 

In Hidden Landmarks of New York, Silk uncovers 120 of the city’s oldest, most unique, and often relatively unknown landmarks and the hidden history behind them. Join us as he shares the stories behind the landmarks, how he started the popular Instagram account and his growing up in Fairfield.

There will be a reception at 6:00 pm in the Bruce Kershner gallery at the library and the author talk will be at 6:30 pm.

Books will be available from Black Rock Books.
