New York Then and Now pairs some amazing vintage photos of the Big Apple with the same views as they looks today.

From the Statue of Liberty to Central Park and beyond, the old and new photos on these pages present a vivid tour of the city’s diverse and vibrant history. Striking contrasts can be seen in the buildings and street scenes of Wall Street, Greenwich Village, Union Square, Madison Square, Times Square, and the Upper East and West Sides. In addition to the archival and contemporary photos, the book is packed with historic information. Together, they tell fascinating stories about the buildings that have come, gone, or stayed in place, remarkably transformed or thankfully preserved. 

Sites include: Ellis Island, Governors Island, Statue of Liberty, Battery Park, U.S. Custom House, Bowling Green, Federal Hall, Broad Street, Wall Street, Singer Building, World Trade Center, Woolworth Building, City Hall, Park Row, Brooklyn Bridge, Mulberry Street Market, Hudson River Piers, the High Line, Washington Square Arch, Cooper Union, Fifth Avenue, the Flatiron Building, Metropolitan Life Buiilding, Madison Avenue, Macy's, Penn Station, Grand Central Station, Empire State Building, Times Square, Rockefeller Center, Radio City,  Plaza Hotel, Central Park, Columbus Circle, Shea Stadium and much more.

Purchased this book for my son who just moved into an apartment in New York. It’s a great coffee table book and he’s already pointed out to a few of the buildings that he passes by each day so he got a kick out of how the buildings looked back in the old days. Pictures are amazing. My son said that whenever people come over, they always flip through the book. It’s a great gift for someone that just moved to New York or anybody for that matter.

Absolutely wonderful book to show the “then and now” of NYC. It’s not only a fascinating read, it’s a great coffee table book for guests to look at when they come to your home. So glad we purchased this!

Me encantan las fotos antiguas en B/N sobre todo de sitios que conozco, vi este libro en una joyería y tarde 5' en pedirlo por Amazon, las fotos no son grandes pero en la época las fotos tampoco tenían mil pixeles, es un libro que está muy bien
