The authors have assembled a large collection of captioned images that represent Manhattan's grid of streets and blocks, the scale of its buildings, the rapid pace of its life, the types of people and things that populate it, the texts that cover every surface, and the love the city inspires. The hidden lives of skyscrapers, subways, streets, neighborhoods, cultural scenes, newspapers and magazines, and even language, trash and scents are included along the way
