John Tauranac To Discuss The Making Of “New York From the Air”

John Tauranac knows architectural New York, but even he was stumped by some of the subjects that the great aerial photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand shot for their newest book. Tauranac will share the stories with you, and he’ll show some of his favorite photographs and tell the tales behind them.
