This walking tour guide shows the variety of architectural styles that can be found in New York's public buildings, residences and commercial structures. Its 20 walking tours provide an insider's look at the architecture of New York City, and nearly 300 new and vintage photographs help to bring the city to life. Easy-to-follow street maps make this an ideal walking companion to the city. The book demonstrates the remarkable changes in the New York landscape of the last ten years - new construction in Times Square and Battery Park City, and newly designated historic districts such as the "Flat Iron District". In contains: dozens of rare historical photographs, showing Lower East-Side tenements and sweat shops, street car trolleys and fashionable Chelsea promenades; useful historical details, including mention of the recently discovered "Negroes Burial Ground behind City Hall"; and tours of other boroughs, including often overlooked historical areas of Brooklyn, Queens and Roosevelt Island. Designations of landmark status are clearly marked throughout.
