“The American Style”

Ever since I arrived in New York two years ago I have been fascinated by the city’s distinct architecture, especially in Manhattan, which is why I can’t wait to visit the  “The American Style” Colonial Revival and the Modern Metropolis” exhibit currently on display at the Museum of the City of New York. The exhibit, according to The New York Times review by Edward Rothstein, is successful because it makes “the invisible visible.” Visitors are promised an enlightening journey through New York City’s architectural past and it’s close relationship to the Colonial Revival style of design and architecture. Various objects and photographs, especially from the early 20th century are featured in this amazing tribute to the evolution of New York City’s physical structure. Visit the exhibit to learn more about this distinctive architecture that is so familiar, we hardly ever notice it.
