Terrific Look At The Wonder Of NYC Buildings & Architecture!: A great value, and amazing overview of 1,000 buildings from the world's leading architectural center! Including the greatest (Empire State, Chrysler, Woolworth...) to hundreds of smaller gems all over the five boroughs like St Nicholas Cathedral, the Hong Kong Bank Building, Trinity Church, 2 White Street, on and on...Yes, the destroyed World Trade Center is also included.And Some nice commentary.A can't miss book! My only (very minor) criticisms are (1) All the photos are black and white (color would probably too costly), and (2) some structures are only shown by a facade or small ornament...In any event, a real treasure!!
Spectacular book, arrived quick and in great condition!: SPECTACULAR BOOK!!! This book is great encyclopedia about buildings of New York. Hard covered, neat to hold thick pages, amazing photographs, perfect size and classically designed book, comes with a great price for 576 pages. Pages filled with nicely outlined information and pictures of 1000 NYs buildings, all buildings listed by areas and there is also a map that shows theirs locations. This book is a good looking gift to buy, good reference book (using as a reference book), or can be treated as photography book on New Yorks buildings. My only suggestion for this book is, I wish it has a old photograph of Singer Tower that was demolished in 1968. SPECTACULAR BOOK!!!
