# Event Details - **Event Name**: Author Event: "Second Avenue Subway" - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 12 Mar, 2026 at 08:00 pm – Thu, 12 Mar, 2026 at 09:00 pm - **Event Description**: A reading and conversation with "Second Avenue Subway" authors Dan McNicol, Bill Goodrich, and Patrick Cashin.About this EventA hundred years of planning. A decade of construction. New York City's Future. Second Avenue Subway: Building New York City's Most Famous Thing Never Built is the remarkable story of the past, present, and future of New York's newest subway line. The incredible story of New York’s newest subway line, diving deep into the challenges that stood in its way—spanning politics, engineering, community relations, technology, and even unexpected geology. It tells how the project was finally completed through the grit and determination of everyone involved, from union workers toiling in subterranean muck, to project engineers from storied construction firms, and all the way up to the governor of New York.Second Avenue Subway is a powerful vehicle for engaging the public’s interest in large-scale infrastructure projects that demand cooperation and trust among multiple and often-divergent stakeholder groups. This is vitally important today, when trust in institutions is suffering and Americans’ belief in our ability to “get big things done” is waning.Dan McNichol is a best-selling author, award-winning journalist, and public speaker known for chronicling America’s most significant infrastructure projects. A former national correspondent for Engineering News-Record, he famously drove cross-country in a 1949 Hudson as a symbol of the nation’s crumbling infrastructure while advocating for infrastructure investment. A contributor to NPR and a former White House appointee focused on transportation policy, he has also served as chief spokesman for major projects including Boston's Big Dig, California's High-Speed Rail, and the reconstruction of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge.Bill Goodrich is a transportation infrastructure executive and licensed professional engineer with more than 40 years of experience in engineering and construction management. Most recently, he served as executive vice president and senior program executive at the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, overseeing Phase 1 of the Second Avenue Subway and East Side Access, including the opening of Grand Central Madison. He previously contributed to the Fulton Transit Center and Boston’s Big Dig, and is a graduate of United States Military Academy with an MS in civil engineering from Massachusetts Institute of Technology.Patrick Cashin is a photographer whose passion began while serving as an engineman aboard the USS Denver, where he documented the evacuation of Vietnam. After 16 years at Newsweek, he became staff photographer for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority in 1999, capturing striking images of transportation infrastructure—from transit tunnels to toll bridges. His work has appeared in major publications including The New York Times, the Sunday Times, the New York Daily News, the London Times, and Engineering News-Record.[ABOUT THIS EVENT: The rear half of the store will be used exclusively for this event.
