Building New York by Bruce Marshall

Building New York by Bruce Marshall

The evolution of New York's built environment is chronicled in this breathtaking photographic history organized chronologically by site - from architectural masterpieces to engineering marvels. The majestic history of the city unfolds alongside the story of the visionaries whose stamp it bears today. The city's coming of age coincided with the rise of photography, and this incredible trove of photographs culled from the archives of Time Life and the New York Historical Society are the very images that created the larger-than-life reputation of New York that continues to dazzle the world to this day.

Bruce Marshall was the founding editor of The Reader's Digest General Books Program, whose first book, The Reader's Digest Great World Atlas, sold more than 20 million copies in editions all over the world. He later formed Marshall Editions and created a wide range of popular thematic atlases. His book The Real World explored the dynamics of cities, among them New York, whose spectacular story inspired this study of its buildings and builders.
