Program Description

Event Details

Wednesday, October 27 at 6:30pm.

New York City’s long-standing fascination with alligators in the sewer has been referenced across popular culture from Thomas Pynchon to Sharknado. But there’s actually a bit of historical truth to this tall tale. New York City’s sewer has been — and still could be — home to the occasional alligator. Join Thomas Hynes, author of Wild City: A Brief History of New York in 40 Animals, to learn more about the urban legends of even wilder New York City.

This is an East End Library Event with Westhampton Free Library.
