With all of the supertowers going up - something we now take for granted - its worth taking a moment to appreciate all of the skyscrapers we already have. I recently added to my collection of city and skyscraper books "NY Skyscrapers", the 2016 edition by Dirk Stichweh. This book does a great job of exploring the city's skyscrapers through the ages, as well as some of our recently completed supertalls like One57 and 432 Park Avenue. It also touches on some of the supertalls currently under construction. It's the most complete collection to date on the rich skyscraper history and legacy that only New York City has so much of. I highly recommend it to any skyscraper fan. We all need to look up more, and not just at what's under construction.
