SUMMARY:New York’s Fabulous Fountains: A Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Join the Victorian Society and author Stephanie Azzarone to explore New York’s iconic fountains in person. Azzarone has just published her widely acclaimed Fabulous Fountains of New York and will give an in depth and fascinating walking tour. \n\n\n\n\nNew York’s fountains are more than just decorative features—they are historical landmarks\, cultural icons\, and dynamic works of art that shape the city’s landscape. They were designed to honor men and women of accomplishment\, memorialize events\, and at one time\, keep citizens from drinking too much alcohol. New York’s fountains are classical and ornate or modern and streamlined. They celebrate firemen\, authors\, social workers\, and more. This tour will take a close look at some of Manhattan’s most distinctive Midtown fountains—new and old\, famous and little known—and share the stories of why they came to be\, the people behind them\, and what makes those fountains special. \nThis event has been rescheduled from a prior summer date due to inclement weather. \nSaturday\, September 12\n1:00–3:00 p.m.\nBryant Park Fountain \nPurchase tickets. \nStops will include: \n\nLowell: Bryant Park\, Sixth Ave and 41st Street\nTruth and Beauty: Main Branch\, New York Public Library\, Fifth Ave and 42nd Street\nChannel Gardens\, Rockefeller Center\, Fifth Avenue between 49th and 50th Streets\nPrometheus\, Rockefeller Center\, between 49th and 50th Streets\nLilholts Pooley Fountain\, Sixth Avenue between 49th and 50th Streets\nLooking Toward the Avenue\, Sixth Avenue between 52nd and 53rd Streets\nSeagram\, Park Avenue between 52nd and 53rd Streets (if time permits)\nPaley Park\, 53rd Street between Fifth and Madison\nPulitzer Fountain\, Fifth Avenue between 58th and 59th Streets (final stop)\n\nThe tour will start at the Fountain in Bryant Park on 42nd Street and ending on 59th Street.
