About this event
Martin Witz's feature on Othmar Ammann, the Swiss engineer behind the George Washington, Verrazzano and Triborough bridges, screened inside a converted subway newsstand as part of Archtober and the Architecture & Design Film Festival. Watching a film about the city's bridges from a 6 train platform is the sort of thing you only get in October.
Why we picked it
A free ADFF feature about the engineer who built New York's great bridges, shown in the city's smallest cinema.
