Eric Homberger reads from The Historical Atlas of New York City: A Visual Celebration of 400 Years of New York City's History.
The Atlas takes readers neighborhood by neighborhood through four hundred years of Gotham’s rich past, describing important events that occurred within the city. Full-color maps, charts, photographs, drawings, and mini-essays of the volume trace historical development and cultural relevance of iconic New York spaces such as Wall Street, Park Avenue, and Broadway. The new edition includes spreads of Giuliani’s New York, the revival of Forty-Second Street, and the rebuilding of Ground Zero. (TenementTalks)… (more)
