This is the City Between Podcast where we explore the hidden and forgotten corners of New York City history. In this episode we travel into Crown Heights Brooklyn in search of a lost civilization devoted to elaborate Moorish fantasy: The Shriners and their beautiful Kismet Temple. Join us as we search for their beginnings from the Arabian Peninsula to the Knickerbocker Cottage in Chelsea. Our excellent theme songs is by Dylan Thurston (more at: www.dylanthurson.com) and you can find more about this episode at www.citybetween.com.
