Author/Illustrator Joe McKendry discusses the techniques used in creating the historically accurate paintings from his latest book One Times Square: A Century of Change at the Crossroads of the World. Joining him is Lynne Sagalyn, Professor of Real Estate Development at Columbia Business School and Tim Tompkins, President of the Times Square Alliance. Together they discuss the physical changes that have transformed Times Square over its 100+ year history, as well as the enduring traditions that have kept it remarkably similar to its earliest days as a gathering place for public celebration along the glamorous “Great White Way”. A small exhibit of original illustrations and sketches from the book will be on display.
