The Leonard Lopate Show

Invisible Frontier

L.B. Deyo and Lefty Leibowitz have made a career out of ignoring “No Trespassing” signs. They’re the editors of an urban adventuring zine, Jinx Magazine, and their recent book is Invisible Frontier: Exploring the Tunnels, Ruins, and Rooftops of Hidden New York. They’re here to talk about condemned buildings, abandoned aqueducts, the “mole people” who live in train tunnels, and Roosevelt Island’s Smallpox Hospital.

  • Music: The Grifters Soundtrack composer Elmer Bernstein
