. . . “though the architecture of New York may seem like postmodern chaos trapped in a grid, (this exhibit) spotlights a common thread which connects some of the boroughs most precious monuments. ‘Rosendale Cement – A Natural Beginning for the Landmarks of Ne York City!’ features a display of vintage cement bags used to transport Rosendale Natural Cement for the construction of The Brooklyn Bridge, the Statue of Liberty pedestal, The Natural History Museum, Times Building, Hotel Algonquin, Grand Central Station, and other blockbusters in the five boroughs.
\nVarious objects used to mine the cement (including an antique box for dynamite) and photographs of the structures at the time of their completion are also on display.<\/p>\n

Witness the beautiful and ornate edifices in person with a guided bike tour of the various buildings immediately following the talk.”<\/p>\n
