 *** Press Release ***

It’s that time of year again – no, not the holidays- but Open House New York (OHNY)!  From private residences and historic landmarks, to rooftop farms and sustainable skyscrapers, OHNY gives you access into the extraordinary architecture that defines NYC.

OHNY is known locally, nationally and internationally for its free Annual OHNY weekend- an unparalleled citywide cultural event that showcases hundreds of NYC’s most architecturally and culturally significant spaces and places, many not usually open to the public. The event takes place across the five boroughs, opening doors to locations and providing unique opportunities to learn about, explore and experience NYC’s built environment.
OHNY will kick off this Saturday, October 15th and run through Sunday, October 16th.  Take advantage of this event which gives you free access to tour landmark buildings and residences, guided tours, performances, workshops, inside looks at architectural landmarks and much more.
Find out the inside scoop on the 14th Street Manhole Covers Tour; discover all there is to know about NY’s famous park on the Central Park Walking Tour; go for a hunt on the Ghosts of Greenwich Village Scavenger Hunt; come across the history of Harlem on the Historic Harlem Tour; infiltrate the heart of NYC’s fashion industry on the Making Midtown: Design, Manufacturing, and the Built Environment of the Garment District; listen to stories on the Upper Westside Stories Tour; bring the entire family out for a Family Affair at the Bronx Museum of the Arts; and much more!

OHNY promotes a greater appreciation of the city’s built environment and broadens public awareness by exposing diverse audiences to distinctive examples of architecture, engineering and design. OHNY educates and inspires discussion of issues of excellence in design, planning and preservation while showcasing outstanding new work as well as structures of historic merit (www.OHNY.org).
