Every New Yorker has a favorite place to shop-whether it's for
pizza or flowers, to grab a beer, or slurp down soup dumplings.
When the coronavirus crisis hit in 2020, illustrator Joel Holland
began drawing storefronts near his apartment as a way of
memorializing an element of city life that seemed suddenly
precarious. He posted them on Instagram and they quickly drew an
avid following. Eventually, Holland's collection grew to include
shops recommended by friends or strangers online. This book
showcases 225 of his delightful illustrations and runs the gamut,
from delis and bodegas to dive bars, bookstores, bakeries,
newsstands, cafes, restaurants and more. Each image is paired with
engaging text written by journalist David Dodge and filled with the
historical, cultural, and architectural details that have earned
these stores a place in people's hearts. Also included is a
foreword by beloved Instagrammer New York Nico, who is known for
chronicling the city's independent businesses. The perfect gift for
New Yorkers of all ages-as well as an insider's guide to everything
from dim sum to late-night jazz-this treasury of iconic shops
belongs in the library of anyone who loves NYC.
