London has an architecture Open House weekend, too!
Last year I was in NYC for the weekend of Open House New York - this year I note (but can't go to - boo hoo) Open House London. The idea is that buildings that usually are open only to people who work in them or perhaps their residents are open for tours - a really fun way to see the inside of things you've looked at the outside of for years. It occurred to me that this would be a good weekend to drag students to, but I didn't get motivated. Maybe another year.
Funny, the only visual stuff I blogged from that trip was the Ambroise Vollard show at the Met. I saw plenty of stuff, but I guess I wasn't in the mood to talk about it - you know, I don't really talk about everything on here; there is some selection! The best thing I did was the High Line tour - looking at a new elevated linear park under renovation (they're still at it).
