Now in its third edition, The Historical Atlas of New York City,
takes us, neighborhood by neighborhood, through four hundred years
of Gotham's rich past, from the city's initial settlement of 270
people in thirty log houses; to John Jacob Astor's meteoric rise
from humble fur trader to the richest, most powerful man in the
city; the fascinating ethnic mixture that is modern Queens; and the
new Freedom Tower at One World Trade Center. With full-color maps,
charts, photographs, drawings, and mini-essays, this encyclopedic
volume also traces the historical development and cultural
relevance of such iconic New York thoroughfares as Fifth Avenue,
Wall Street, Park Avenue, and Broadway. This fully revised and
updated edition brings the Atlas up to the present, including new
spreads of the One World Trade Center site. A fascinating chronicle
of the life of a metropolis, the striking third edition of The
Historical Atlas of New York City provides a vivid and unique
perspective on the nation's cultural capital.
