We’ll Take Manhattan
The New York International Auto Show dates back to 1900, when it first took place at the original Madison Square Garden, and in a city that is notoriously not car-friendly the annual exhibition of automobiles continues to thrive in Manhattan’s newly-expanded Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.
