Review

"The best of these are compiled in a recently published book by Prestel, New Architecture New York, a collection of fresh architectural gems show the way forward for the city's urban planning.
In this printed homage to the new buildings in the city, architecture fans will find a list of soon-to-be architectural symbols of New York accompanied with beautiful photography of more than 50 projects that have been popping up in the streets." -CNN Style

"New York City’s recent real estate gold rush has once again made the city fertile ground for expressive, experimental, and exceptional architecture. This collection of 50 lushly photographed projects makes the case that the city’s streets are still one of the showcases for modern architects." -Curbed
