The Financial District's Lost Neighborhood: 1900-1970 celebrates this little-known neighborhood while highlighting some of New York City's most famous landmarks: Trinity Church, St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church, Battery Park and the New York Aquarium, and the Downtown Athletic Club, home of the Heisman Memorial Trophy. …

Softcover. Condition: Very Good. The Images of America book series works with local writers and historians to create books highlighting the history of their neighborhoods.

This special copy of the book appears to have been annotated by the previous owner: the book includes an insert with copy of author's death notice, and several pages include taped-on additions to the photo captions, adding additional details about the individuals pictured.…
