Lincoln Center Celebrates 'Legacies of San Juan Hill'

In the 1950s, the predominantly African-American and Hispanic Manhattan neighborhood once known as San Juan Hill was razed. Lincoln Center was established in its place. Beginning today, the organization will celebrate the neighborhood through the Legacies of San Juan Hill Festival, running to October 29. Composer Etienne Charles discusses his multimedia project, "San Juan Hill: A New York Story," which will be performed on October 23. Plus, Loren Schoenberg, senior scholar of the National Jazz Museum in Harlem, explains the history of San Juan Hill.
