Synopsis:
"This is a wonderful guide to Gotham old and new by someone who really knows his stuff. Invaluable!"--Kevin Baker, author of Strivers Row
"Instantly my favorite guide to the city. Walsh has a phenomenal eye and an almost fanatical attention to detail."--Luc Sante, author of Low Life
This work offers an urban exploration of the oddities and artifacts of New York City's past that are hidden in plain across the boroughs, from the World's first Hall of Fame in the Bronx to the remnants of the original Penn Station in Manhattan to what may be the only statue to a gynecologist at Grand Army Plaza, Brooklyn. "Forgotten New York" is written for both lifelong New Yorkers and first-time visitors to the City who are interested in the vanishing remnants of old New York as well as the interesting parts of the city that fall though the cracks of other guide books. It can be used as both an at-a-glance guide to the history and architecture of the city and an urban explorer walking tour of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx, and Staten Island, complete with comprehensive maps and extensive photos. This is the real story of New York brought to life by the only person who could tell it, a real New Yorker who loves his City.
