Please join Hank ambassadors, Katy and Caroline, at the lovely New York Society Library to hear from Michael Kimmelman on his eagerly awaited new book — The Intimate City. We know how much HAnK members love NYC and walking in NYC — so this talk is definitely on target.

As New York came to a halt with COVID, Michael Kimmelman composed an email to a group of architects, historians, writers, and friends, inviting them to take a walk. Wherever they liked, he wrote—preferably someplace meaningful to them, someplace that illuminated the city and what they loved about it.

The walks unpacked the essence of urban life and its social fabric—the history, plans, laws, feats of structural engineering, architectural highlights, and everyday realities that make up a place Kimmelman calls “humanity’s greatest achievement.”
The Intimate City reveals why New York, despite COVID,  continues to inspire and to mean so much to those who call it home.

We could gather post-talk at a neighborhood spot if interest.

Wed - May 31st NY Times Architecture Critic on his new book: The Intimate City: Walking New York
