The Olympics That Weren't: Nyc's Bid for the 2012 Games (part 2)
About
The second half of the Brainery's history of New York's lost 2012 Olympic bid, looking at how the failed bid still reshaped the city through the housing, transit and recreation projects it set moving, and at whether New York could host in future. At the Brainery, 190 Underhill Ave in Prospect Heights (Grand Army Plaza, 2/3); $10, Tuesday 17 November, 6:30–8pm. Part 1 runs on 10 November, and the two parts are among only three lectures on our November calendar, all $10.
