Book of the Moment

At a bookstore today I was pleased to see that New York 2000: Architecture and Urbanism from the Bicentennial to the Millennium, the fifth and last in Robert A.M. Stern's architectural history of New York, is done and in stores. The 1300-page tome was preceded by the years 1880, 1900, 1930, and 1960. All together the five volumes total over 5,000 pages, quite an undertaking.
