UPPER EAST SIDE?Uptown gallery Leslie Feely Fine Art has on display through June 29 an array of more than 30 work-in-progress models from our favorite oh-no-I'm-not-a-starchitect-really Frank Gehry. See wild child New York by Gehry/8 Spruce Street before it even existed, plus mock-ups of the IAC building and the now-scrapped Miss Brooklyn, which was originally planned for Atlantic Yards. Plus some of his other work that's, you know, not in New York. [CurbedWire Inbox; previously]
CITYWIDE?The New York Landmarks Conservancy wants to know your favorite landmark. So email them! They've also put up a series of video tours of historic sites throughout NYC. It's titled "Tourist In Your Own Town," which is uber-cheesy, but don't let that deter you. You can explore cool corners of the city without budging from your desk?or your comfy couch/bed/armchair-laptop setup, whatever. The most recent installment, which takes you inside the museum at the old Eldridge Street synagogue, is worth a look. [CurbedWire Inbox; previously]
