Long identified with African-American style and culture, Harlem is also a pillar of New York's social and architectural historya neighborhood synonymous with writers, actors, musicians, artists and other cultural tastemakers. Join Harlem historian and preservation activist Michael Henry Adams for an exploration of Harlem's extraordinary legacy of residential architecture, from mansions and country villas to thoughtfully planned row houses and handsome apartment buildings. Adams' books include "Harlem, Lost and Found: An Architectural and Social History, 1765-1915" (Monacelli Press, 2001) and "Style and Grace: African Americans at Home" (Bulfinch, 2003).
Copies of "Harlem, Lost and Found" will be available for purchase and signing at a reception following the lecture.
