The SoHo Memory Keeper

Another year gone with the wind. Can you believe that we have been preserving SoHo memories for six years, since January 1, 2011? They have flown by so quickly, and we have accomplished much, but there is still more to do! Before embarking on year seven of The SoHo Memory Project, I would like to take a moment to reflect on highlights from this past year.

Reading SoHo: Recent Books

There are two brand spankin’ new books that feature SoHo, published within the last year, that merit attention in case they’ve been overlooked by my fellow SoHo memoriticians.

A Tree Grows in SoHo

Recently, the New York City Department of Parks sent six men and three trucks with two chain saws to cut down George Maciunas’s trees. The founder of the Fluxus Art movement, the founding father of SoHo, and the man whose office was in the basement of 80 Wooster Street, Maciunas would never have let it happen.
