Forbidden Playgrounds w/ Steve Duncan
At 7:30 pm tonight, at Pete’s Candy Store, join Urban Explorer Steve Duncan as he shares slides and tales of intrepid acts of trespassing and discovery in NYC and elsewhere, and learn about the hidden world that lies all around us. (From hidden subway tunnels to the tops of bridges.)
STEVE DUNCAN is an urban historian and photographer. He recently completed a project of climbing to the top of every bridge around Manhattan, and has been underground in cities ranging from New York to Moscow.
