Still on despite the rain! Core77 is proud to be sponsoring the first in the series of walks, entitled "A World of Tomorrow in Queens: Space-Age Adventures for Pint-Size Walkers/Pre-Walkers" as part of Alissa Walker's City Walks: Architecture: New York, with maps by John Spelman. Here's what's on the agenda:
Bring the kids (and strollers) for this walk as we wander through the fantastic structures left behind by the 1964 World's Fair. We'll be joined by World's Fair enthusiast and designer Andrew Sloat who will tell us about the ongoing work to preserve the New York State Pavilion. We'll also see the Unisphere, Queens Museum of Art (with the Panorama of the City of New York and newly-restored 1939 relief map of the New York city watershed), and we'll end at the New York Hall of Sciencefor a round of Rocket Park Mini Golf ($6 for adults/$5 for children 6+)(sorry no golf in the rain) to see the Charles and Ray Eames-designed Mathematica exhibition for IBM and astronaut ice cream.
To participate, meet at 1pm on Sunday, October 18th at Willets Point Blvd at the Shea Stadium Station on the 7 in Queens.
