Title :
LIC in Context: An Unorthodox Guide to Long Island City
Authors :
Paul Parkhill, Katherine Gray
Publisher :
Furnace Press
Year :
2005
ISBN :
0977274209
Language :
English
Long Island City in Context explores the development, redevelopment and perpetual reimagining of Long Island City, one of New York City's most dynamic and misconstrued neighborhoods.
The project represents a collaborative effort to make sense of this physically and socially disjointed swath of Northwestern Queens, utilizing strategies culled from the fields of planning, architecture, history and art.
Neither a comprehensive neighborhood guide nor a traditional exercise in urban planning or design, the book takes an ambitious, if selective, stab at evoking what is compelling and unusual about the neighborhood through the exploration of 54 sites.
