Eastside vs. Westside

A colorful evening with Barry Lewis, whose Eastside vs. Westside lecture returns by popular demand. By the end of the 19th century, Central Park West had become a bastion of middle class life and Fifth Avenue the boulevard of the very wealthy. Today the east side chateaux have almost all disappeared, but the middle class apartment buildings of the west side remain a vital part of the New York skyline.
