Twenty-five years ago, Sharon Zukin published Loft Living: Culture and Capital in Urban Change, her landmark work on the transformation of SoHo from manufacturing space to cultural locus to residential lofts. Shortly thereafter, the Two Trees corporation began their own project of transformation, changing Brooklyn's waterfront into the residential neighborhood known today as DUMBO. In conjunction with the Artists Space exhibition On Being an Exhibition, CUP is pleased to present Lofty Pursuits, a live talk show featuring sociologist Sharon Zukin and Jed Walentas, vice-president of Two Trees. Zukin and Walentas will discuss culture, capital, and real estate from SoHo to DUMBO. This special edition of People and Buildings will be filmed as a live talk show. Don't miss the chance to be part of our studio audience.
