#Regram: NYCulture Start the week off with a little #NYCulture history. CarnegieHall, in 1960, was in danger of being demolished. Through an enormous effort by the “Committee to Save Carnegie Hall”, led by Isaac Stern, the City was motivated to purchase and preserve the building at the final hour. Pictured here is then Mayor Wagner conducting the nycsanitation band the “Emerald Society Pipes and Drums” at the building’s rededication ceremony in September 1960. Photo courtesy of NYTimes
