Lincoln and New York October 9, 2009 March 25, 2010 From the launch of Abraham Lincolns 1860 campaign with a speech at Cooper Union through the unprecedented outpouring of grief at his funeral procession in 1865, New York City played a surprisingly central role in the career of the sixteenth Presidentand Lincoln, in turn, had an impact on New York that was vast, and remains vastly underappreciated. Now, for the first time, a museum exhibition will trace the crucial relationship between Americas greatest President and its greatest city.
