WINTER LECTURE SERIES: BLACK HISTORY AT MJM

Thursday, February 27th, 7:00PM-8:30PM,  Winter Series: Black History Month at Morris-Jumel Mansion, 65 Jumel Terrace between 160th and 161st Street.  In this engaging lecture architect and historian, John Reddick, will explore the colonial aesthetic in Harlem's early "modern" architecture, considering how it served as a backdrop to the jazz age. Discussing select local early twentieth-century designs, such as the Roger Morris Apartments and the Colonial Park & Pool, Reddick will place into context the architecture of Harlem and the work of African American architect, Vertner Tandy, and his residence for Madame Walker on 136th Street, known during the Renaissance as the "Dark Tower."
