SoHo: The Intersection of Art and Real Estate
Steven L. Newman Real Estate Institute at Baruch College
151 East 25th Street
Thursday, December 1, 8:30 am–12:30 pm

On the 40th anniversary of zoning-law changes that created artists’ live/work lofts in SoHo, this conference will present government officials, real-estate developers, activists, and artists to
explore the neighborhood’s history and ponder its future. SoHo as we know it derives from the vision of one man: Fluxus founder George Maciunas, who conceived Fluxhouses where artists could live and work. During the 1970s, SoHo artists staved off urban-renewal pressures and successfully lobbied for zoning changes. Through the 1980s, SoHo thrived as an art-focused mixed-use neighborhood. Then real estate values began to rise, and commerce pushed art out.

Today, SoHo’s character is determined by the fashion, cosmetics, and home-furnishings stores that occupy its ground floors. What should be done? Can art survive as a vital component of SoHo? Should residential occupancy remain restricted to artists? Should retail stores be allowed to continue proliferating, contrary to zoning laws? Although the neighborhood is landmarked, will its physical character change?

Free of charge. To register, call 646/660-6950.

Starts 9/21/11 6:30 pm
Ends 1/16/12 8:00 pm
Location The Museum of Modern Art, New York 11 West 53rd Street
