The Grand Concourse in the Bronx, New York, turns 100 years old.

EXHIBIT



Conceived in the late 19th century as the Champs-Élysées of the Bronx, the four-mile-long Grand Concourse fell on hard times in the 1960s, as middle class residents fled New York City for suburbia. Intersections: The Grand Concourse at 100, a yearlong exhibition series at the Bronx Museum of the Arts, celebrates the boulevard with a design competition (see page 34 for info on submitting), rich archival material, and contemporary artworks, like Jeff Liao's panoramic view of the new and old Yankee Stadiums (detail below).
