Synopsis
When it was first published in 1968, the critically acclaimed LOST NEW YORK became an instant classic for the way it reawakened a lost city. Now expanded and updated, with 118 new photographs, the book reveals a fresh, true picture of New York as it has lived and grown, with startling reminders of how much that has vanished remains part of us. From the grandeur of the old Metropolitan Opera and Pennsylvania Station to the fabulous lost night clubs of 52nd Street and Harlem, from the opulence of the old Vanderbilt mansions to the Madison Square Garden rooftop where architect Stanford White was shot, this is both a unique testament to New York's past and a story of the vitality that makes the city continue to connect with us. Illustrated with rare and stunning photographs and marked by engaging, lively text, this new edition of LOST NEW YORK provides a unique and unforgettable look at the places in New York that are no more. Beyond that, it evokes the significant moments in time and memory that make us reflect on our passions about change and the reasons we remain concerned about the future of cities., Rare and vivid photographs recapture the beauty of old New York City buildings that have vanished forever, such as the original Madison Square Garden, landmarks from both World Fairs, the old Waldorf-Astoria, and others.

    First I must write that for being a vintage paperback, it was in excellent condition, which was true to the description and multiple pictures. Not a bad price either. The response was quick, shipping was fast and the book was very well wrapped and packaged. All around a great experience, highly recommend this seller. A++! Thank you!

    I apologize for my tardiness in posting feedback. The seller did a superb job! I received my book five days after ordering, and it arrived in better condition than "very good"; along with its cd as advertised. The seller took care with packaging, which I appreciate:) They also priced this out of print book about pionus parrots very fairly in my opinion, and I deeply appreciate the chance to finally read it!

    This edition of Wuthering Heights came securely wrapped in a bubble-lined manila envelope, well cushioned using a corrugated cardboard sleeve. The book is exquisite--as described-- and in fact, better than pictured. Shipping was fast and the price is comparable for an item of this age/condition. Thanks aFrolicOfTheirOwn!

  • Great book about lost NYC buildings , lots of photos and text. Price with shipping $4 hard to beat!

    Newer edition with lots of great photos of long gone New York buildings such as Penn Station, and many more. Very good if you like New York city or just the history of one of America's most famous big cities. I got the soft cover version. Deal was hard to beat for around $4 including shipping.
