I love maps…. definitely want to check out this exhibit, The Greatest Grid: The Master Plan of Manhattan, 1811-2011 at the Museum of the City of New York, which runs until April 15. I was just having brunch with some other map-obsessed friends last weekend and they pulled out a beautiful collection of maps showing Lima’s development from colonization to the present. Will be great to see New York City’s.

I have been thinking about this film and Pina Bausch’s extraordinary talent and powerful expression. I highly recommend moving this to the top of your list to see.
