Tour | Tour of Gracie Mansion, Home of New York's Mayors


In 1799, a prosperous New York merchant named Archibald Gracie built a country house overlooking a bend in the East River, five miles north of the then-New York City limits. Little did he know that, more than 200 years later, his home would be serving as the official residence of the First Family of New York City - a place where history is made, not merely recorded. As a historic house museum run by the Parks Department, sitting on 11 acres of grounds now known as Carl Schurz Park, Gracie Mansion has served as the home of 10 mayors, beginning first with Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia in 1942. Today, Gracie Mansion is occupied by the de Blasio family, which has opened its doors in the spirit of the administration's motto: one city, rising together. In keeping with that theme, Mayor de Blasio and First Lady Chirlane McCray have introduced a new art installation, titled “Windows on the City: Looking Out at Gracie’s New York.” This tour repeats every Monday.

Author Reading | Broadway: A History of New York in 13 Miles


An eye-opening history of Manhattan told through its most celebrated street.. Fran Leadon's Broadway traces the physical and social transformation of an avenue that has been both the "Path of Progress" and a "street of broken dreams," home to both parades and riots, startling wealth and appalling destitution. Glamorous, complex, and sometimes troubling, the evolution of an oft-flooded dead end to a canyon of steel and glass is the story of American progress.

Author Reading | This Storm: Deep Dive Into World War II Era Southern California.


In his first LA Quartet, James Ellroy explored the city’s criminal underbelly from the late 1940s to the late 1950s, with such acclaimed novels as The Black Dahlia and LA Confidential. Now dead in the middle of his second LA Quartet, Ellroy turns back the clock to World War II. The second novel in the series, This Storm,  picks up on  New Year’s Eve 1941 as the clock strikes twelve, ushering in 1942. In the wake of Pearl Harbor, America has entered the war, Japanese Americans are being rounded up for internment, and Los Angeles is gripped by corruption, unconsummated desire, war profiteering, and murder.  This Storm coincides with the massive publication of three Everyman’s Library volumes collecting both Ellroy’s first LA Quartet and his Underworld USA Trilogy. Ellroy speaks about the arc of his career, and his unique ability to unlock history through the vehicle of noir.
