Preserving NYC's Vanishing Businesses

The Brian Lehrer Show | Jul 25, 2017

Grousing about how New York is changing, gentrifying and losing its edge has long been a New Yorker's right and social obligation. For the last decade, Jeremiah Moss has been doing his part, chronicling the closure of New York establishments on his blog "Vanishing New York." Moss offers a comprehensive history of the city — its culture and people — through the institutions that have been erased, which he compiled in his new book, Vanishing New York: How a Great City Lost Its Soul (Dey Street Books, 2017).
