Grand Central to Seagram Midtown walk
Start at Grand Central and walk up Park Avenue and you get the evolution of the tall building in ten minutes: Beaux-Arts terminal, then the postwar slabs — Lever House, the Seagram — that rejected everything the terminal stood for. I do this walk with every visiting architect.
A short Park Avenue walk from Beaux-Arts to International Style — the skyscraper's whole arc.
