Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essential walking companion to more than two hundred cutting-edge buildings constructed since the new millennium. The first decade of the 21st century has been a time of lively architectural production in New York City. A veritable building boom gripped the city, giving rise to a host of new—and architecturally cutting-edge—residential, corporate, institutional, academic, and commercial structures. With the boom now waning, this guidebook is perfectly timed to take stock of the city’s new skyline and map them all out, literally. This essential walking companion and guide features 200 of the most notable buildings and spaces constructed in New York’s five boroughs since the new millennium—The High Line, by James Corner Field Operations/Diller Scofidio + Renfro; 100 Eleventh Avenue, by Ateliers Jean Nouvel; Brooklyn Children’s Museum, by Rafael Vinoly Architects; 41 Cooper Square, by Morphosis; Poe Park Visitors Center, by Toshiko Mori Architect; and One Bryant Park, by Cook + Fox, to name just a few. Projects are grouped by neighborhood, allowing for easy, self-guided tours, with photos, maps, directions, and descriptions that highlight the most important aspects of each entry.

Book excerpt: New York isn't for the faint-hearted and neither is the Avant-Guide series of travel books. Unlike other travel guides, which offer such unhelpful platitudes as "wear comfortable shoes", Avant-Guide New York City writes for today's modern, cosmopolitan traveler who doesn't want to be advised on footwear, especially in New York, where "comfortable shoes" won't get you into the latest club. With the tagline "Refuse to be a Tourist!" Avant-Guide New York City offers up-to-date and up-to-speed information highlighted by colorized photos, edgy graphics, vibrant features, thorough maps, and coverage of the current cultural scene so readers can dive head-first into what's hot in the city that never sleeps. With an inside scoop on film, music, art, and literature, Avant-Guide New York City will direct sophisticated travelers to venues and happenings they won't find in the tired old guidebooks their parents toted. Articles and interviews with over a dozen leading artists, filmmakers, musicians, chefs, fashion designers, and politicians introduce readers to the cultural lifeblood of New York from Greenwich Village and Broadway to Wall Street and Central Park. As stylish and colorful as New York itself, Avant-Guide New York City uses non-traditional typefaces, undulating text, extraordinary photographs, and hip computer-enhanced graphics to meet the vacation needs of the large population of travelers between the ages of 18 and 49. The semi-soft covers are extremely durable, feel good in the hand, and don't make their users stand out like the usual guidebook-lugging tourists. Written and edited by residents of New York City, this guide shows travelers the new, the interesting, and the best ofwhat the city has to offer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This alternative guidebook for one of the world’s most popular tourist destinations explores all five boroughs to reveal a people’s New York City. The sites and stories of A People’s Guide to New York City shift our perception of what defines New York, placing the passion, determination, defeats, and victories of its people at the core. Delving into the histories of New York's five boroughs, you will encounter enslaved Africans in revolt, women marching for equality, workers on strike, musicians and performers claiming streets for their art, and neighbors organizing against landfills and industrial toxins and in support of affordable housing and public schools. The streetscapes that emerge from these groups' struggles bear the traces, and this book shows you where to look to find them. New York City is a preeminent global city, serving as the headquarters for hundreds of multinational firms and a world-renowned cultural hub for fashion, art, and music. It is among the most multicultural cities in the world and also one of the most segregated cities in the United States. The people that make this global city function—immigrants, people of color, and the working classes—reside largely in the so-called outer boroughs, outside the corporations, neon, and skyscrapers of Manhattan. A People’s Guide to New York City expands the scope and scale of traditional guidebooks, providing an equitable exploration of the diverse communities throughout the city. Through the stories of over 150 sites across the Bronx, Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn and Staten Island as well as thematic tours and contemporary and archival photographs, a people’s New York emerges, one in which collective struggles for justice and freedom have shaped the very landscape of the city.
