A Library Journal Starred Review
"In his account of each walk and structure, Hill writes not only of
the architectural and construction detail of each building but also
blends the history of the sites and the city with fascinating
tidbits on the machinations of government and the planning process.
The book is beautifully illustrated with photographs of many of the
structures by Bendov." –Library Journal
"A great reference for locals as well as for visitors curious about
the city’s changing neighborhoods." —Architectural Record
"There is no shortage of architectural guidebooks on New York City,
but the bulk of these are confined to historic buildings. John
Hill’s new volume is among the few that looks to the present,
charting a panorama of 150 contemporary buildings that span nearly
every typology, from office skyscraper to municipal salt
shed." –Metropolis
