Alvin Boyarsky Memorial Event

A memorial event to the late Alvin Boyarsky, Chairman of the AA from 1971 to 1990. The city was one of Boyarsky’s greatest enthusiasms, infusing his development of the AA into a truly metropolitan institution. This symposium offers various insights into ‘the idea of the city’ from several of Boyarsky’s friends and former colleagues: a veritable roster of leading architects from the United States, Australia, and Europe.
