NYPL Hosts Eric Sanderson on 'Before New York' November 10: In-Person Sold Out, Livestream Available
The New York Public Library in New York City, New York, hosts a book talk on November 10 from 6 to 7 p.m.: landscape ecologist Eric W. Sanderson presents his new book Before New York in conversation with New York Times architecture critic Michael Kimmelman. The event is free with ticketed registration.
The library's event page says in-person registration is sold out, while livestream tickets remain available; doors open around 5:30 p.m. and a limited number of standby tickets may be released on the night.
Before New York expands Sanderson's bestseller Mannahatta into an atlas of the New York region from before Henry Hudson's 1609 arrival to today, drawing on more than 25 years of research with 75 original maps, 200 color illustrations and nearly 4,000 entries on streams, wetlands, wildlife and Indigenous settlements. Sanderson is vice president for urban conservation at the New York Botanical Garden and director of the Mannahatta Project, and was a 2019-2020 fellow of the library's Cullman Center.
