Yipee! An Alice Tully Upgrade!

This morning at Lincoln Center, the press was treated to a hard hat tour of Alice Tully Hall under renovation. The space houses music and performance groups, as well as the Film Society of Lincoln Center and its annual New York Film Festival. In March 2009, “Rendez-Vous with French Cinema” will be the Film Society’s debut event in the new hall.

The NW corner of Broadway and 65th Street at the tip of the renovation.

The SW corner of Broadway and 65th Street as seen through the work.
