SUMMARY:The Grid That Made Manhattan (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Find out how the NYC we know today came to be in this fun & informative session!\n\nThose who live and  work in New York City or even just visit surely notice the very regular grid of numbered streets and  avenues that make it easy to get around much of Manhattan.
