Description

Join ASF’s Camilla Hellman in conversation with John Kinnear as they discuss the great Scots who Built New York, The Modernists, which focuses on the 1880’s and onwards when #Carnegie’s steel made tall buildings possible, and glass became a greater used material in architecture. Builders became engineers and construction became more efficient and economical.   




Since 2019, we have been releasing walking tour maps to highlight #Scots who have greatly contributed to the growth and development of #NewYorkCity. We are looking to develop a third map that will lead to the launching of a mobile app highlighting 90 locations around New York City.  There are currently two available to purchase on the ASF website here: https://www.americanscottishfoundation.com/.../landmarks5...  




#ScotsInUS is released the 1st & 3rd Monday of the month at 7pm on your favorite podcast platforms (Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Anchor) and on American Scottish Foundation #ScotsInUS on YouTube.
