Inhaltsverzeichnis

Hidden History – Includes the location of a little-known cottage that links Edgar Allen Poe to the creation of Batman.
Central Park – Spotlights bridges and tucked away green spots, as well as stories behind many of the myriad statues
Humble Parks – here are more than 1,000 parks across NYC’s boroughs, and this chapter showcases the smaller and more charming of those.
On the Street – Includes the location of a single short block that hosts a dozen weird styles of architecture as well as several notable pieces of art
Shopping Spree – Includes specialty stores with extraordinary wares, like the Superhero Supply Store; or ones with an attraction, like a bookstore with a gold and blue ceiling painted with stars, constellations, planets and the symbols of the zodiac.
Quiet Realms – Both visitors and inhabitants will find places of refuge in this chapter, including an art installation consisting of a huge space filled with dirt.
Excursions – Take a longer subway ride or car out to Louis Armstrong’s house, with its turquoise blue kitchen (including appliances!) or Wave Hill, with its Capri-like setting along the Hudson.
