I traveled to New York and this book was very expensive in the book store. I wanted something to review after my whirl wind tours of the city. This book was it!! Very fast delivery of the book. The book was just as described. I would use this seller again. Good job!

If you are looking for a 'tour' book of New York City that has alot more substance to it than many of the cheap, tourist paperbacks then this book is for you. The quality of the photographs is outstanding as is the construction of the book itself. All of the obvious choice of landmarks are included, but what is even better is the author/photographer includes many other landmarks that may not be as familiar to most visitors as they should be, and you will find yourself wanting to search out some of these 'new' locations on your next visit. Keep in mind that any of the photos in this book can be ordered from the author individually too. A great way to be introduced to New York or a great way to remember New York !

I really like this book. There are sections in here of many landmarks of The City That Never Sleeps. The 102-story Empire State Building, the 77-story Chrysler Building, and the Plaza Hotel all are featured here. Time Warner Center, whose twin towers rise 55 stories, or 751 feet, is in this book. Best of all, you can get this book and expect to find some of the newest buildings in it. That includes those three new buildings of the World Trade Center.One World Trade Center is the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere--1,776 feet tall, with a roof height of 1,368 feet. The 104-story building is the World Trade Center's main building. The 978-foot Four World Trade Center and the 741-foot Seven World Trade Center are the two other buildings.Rockefeller Center is also present in this book. The 70-story G.E. Building is the centerpiece of that complex. There is Top of The Rock at the top of the 850-foot-tall building.This book is an absolute MUST for anyone who loves the architecture of New York City. I know I do!

I love this book. It has great pictures and information, from the beginning of New York to today. I also bought one for my dad!

I gave this as a gift to a friend's son who is obsessed with NY. He was glued to every page with a big smile.

Great pictures with well written text. Nice to have for a trip to the city. Good value. Happy with purchase.
