Visitors and New Yorkers walk by hundreds of these landmarks daily, often never knowing the rich history behind each of these buildings.

Whether it's an African Graveyard a stone's throw from City Hall; the Truman Capote house in Brooklyn Heights that he claimed to own (but actually just rented a room there for years); or 4 Gramercy Park West, the Greek Revival-style townhouse that is rumoured to be the home of Stuart Little; each entry includes a picture of the landmark with a short, informative description of its history and its past (often well-known) inhabitants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith 120 photographs beautifully designed in a portable book, it's perfect for armchair perusal or to stash in your backpack while wandering around the city.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette Aotearoa New Zealand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47340841074924,"sku":"9780762486762","price":60.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/12710013482459.jpg?v=1772172099"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/tommy-silk.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
