Manhattan : Rectangular Grid for Ordering an Island Paperback / softback

Part of the Redesigning Gridded Cities series

Description

This book focuses on the city of Manhattan, specifically in regards to its grid-style design.

The author proposes a number of original interventions that implicate this grid in productive ways.
