Washington Heights, 156th Street at Broadway

So, just as I was thinking, ho hum, just a typical section of Broadway, blam, here's this major building. As you can tell, I don't usually research before I go; I like to come on things unexpectedly, just as any casual walker might, although many casual walkers are probably better informed than I am.

This building, originally the home of The American Geographical Society, and now the site of Baricua College, is part of a complex of buildings, built as The Audubon Terrace Museum Group in 1911. More tomorrow.
