The Cold Tour: Surveillance, Propaganda & Control in Midtown Manhattan

The Cold Tour: Surveillance, Propaganda & Control in Midtown Manhattan is a winter walking tour that explores how systems of monitoring and public messaging shaped everyday life in New York City, with a strong focus on the Cold War era. Designed for the colder months and following a sheltered Midtown route, the tour examines how familiar streets and interiors became spaces where power and influence quietly operated across the twentieth century.
