Title: The City Observed New York: A Guide To The Architecture of Manhattan Author: Paul Goldberger Publisher: Vintage Books (1979) Description:Considered by many people to be the best written guide to the architecture of New York. Paul Goldberger, famous architecture critic writes extremely well and this elevates this guidebook to literature. Filled with photos by David Dunlap and maps of the areas discussed, this is a great book to own. From the rear cover”Without doubt the best thing of its kind to yet appear. It is a wonderful book—perceptive, entertaining, useful, refreshingly free of jargon and, in this reader’s view, an important testament to the most important city in the land.” David McCullough, The New York Times Book Review “An invaluable new guide to America’s prima donna metropolis. Witty, personal, intelligently opinionated…this terrific paean to the art of seeing makes you want to take to the streets.” Newsweek In this superbly written guide, Paul Goldberger, architecture critic for The New York Times, takes readers on a guided walking tour of Manhattan, beginning in the financial district and traveling uptown—stopping to provide historical information and aesthetic evaluations of some four hundred buildingsalong the way. Goldberger’s lively, knowledgeable commentary and provocative opinions make delightful armchair reading, but it will be hard to resist putting the guide in your pocket and strolling through the city to appreciate its splendid streets, neighborhoods, buildings, parks, bridges, andother sights that Goldberger describes in such arresting detail. From the World Trade Center (“so utterly banal as to be unworthy of the headquarters of a bank in Omaha’”) to the Woolworth Building (“the Mozart of skyscrapers, a lyrical tower that weds Gothic ornament to exquisite massing and scale”), from the Chrysler Building (“there is something thatmakes that odd silvery tower glimmer in the sun and bring a smile to our lips”) to the Brooklyn Bridge and Central Park, which Goldberger considers “the two greatest works of architecture in New York,” The City Observed brings New York to vivid life. This guide, which is the first in an outstanding new series on the architecture of major American cities, has excellent street maps and original photos, and will be indispensable for everyone who wants to know the city. Condition:Book is good. Creases to front cover with corners dog-eared. Spine very good. Text block firmly attached. No writing on any pages. No Dustjacket – this is a paperback.

Details:wraps paperback – size approx. – 5 1/4 x 9″First Vintage Books edition June 1979, – number line starts at 4 so this is a 4th printing 347 pages Terms (payment, shipping, tax, returns, feedback, etc.) Please read before buying U.S. bidders only Payment Please pay within 48 hours of winning. eBay managed payments Shipping Shipping will be $6.50 and will be shipped USPS media mail with tracking. We may upgrade your package at our discretion to USPS Ground Advantage. Package will be shipped within 4 business days after payment – usually faster. The USPS can be notoriously slow, it could take 2-3 weeks for delivery. Please take that into account when leaving feedback, that we will ship quickly, but the USPS can take a long time to deliver, and we have no control over delivery time. Why Shipping Costs Are What They Are: eBay users may note that postal rates increased AGAIN on July 14, 2024. That’s EIGHT price hikes in 4 years. This was the largest single price increase ever: 10% on media mail. USPS shipping is getting expensive, but eBay also charges sellers 15% on the shipping cost (+ the taxes), in addition to the actual package shipping cost. That fact and the USPS business model has made shipping prices rise quite a bit since 2019. In 2019 a one pound package sent via media mail cost $2.75. Today it is 68% more to send the same package. This is all part of the bi-annual price increases starting in 2020 & the misguided USPS 10 Year Plan – “Delivering For America,” implemented in 2021 which twice per year, every year until 2030 will keep increasing rates, while the USPS continues to lose billions of dollars. Combined Shipping if you Buy or Win Multiple Auctions Multiple book/media auction wins will qualify for combined shipping when possible. Do not pay until auctions you are bidding on are complete. Email to let us know that you will be bidding or have won more than one item. A revised combined invoice will then be sent after you tell us you are done bidding. Otherwise, if you pay before all auctions are complete or pay separately – combined shipping is not available. Sales Tax: If your state has sales tax, it is collected by eBay & then paid to your state tax authority. Sellers do not make money from this but are charged a percentage by eBay on the total sale including tax – insane, but true. Returns No returns. We describe all items conservatively. However, If there is a problem, message us through eBay messages to let us know what the issue is before contacting eBay or initiating a return or leaving feedback and we will work it out. We want satisfied customers. Feedback: After you receive your item and are satisfied, please leave positive feedback and after you do we will reciprocate. Questions There’s no such thing as a stupid question. Please ask any and all questions before bidding. Photos & Descriptions Photos are of the actual item depicted and are part of the description, please view them all.
