New York City's landmarks tell the story of who we are, and keeping them standing takes a lot more than nostalgia. In this episode of Sisto Says, Sisto sits down with Angel Ayón, Principal of AYON Studio, an award-winning architect and preservationist who has spent over 26 years dedicated to saving and enhancing some of New York's most significant historic buildings.
From his work on the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum to community advocacy in Harlem, Angel brings a rare combination of technical expertise and genuine passion for the built environment. He and Sisto dig into what landmark preservation really looks like in practice, the regulatory process, the challenges, and why it matters for the future of our city.
If you work in construction, architecture, or real estate in New York, this one is worth your time. Watch, subscribe, and share your thoughts in the comments.
