Contents Bronx -- Brooklyn -- Manhattan -- Queens -- Staten Island.
Summary Houses dating to the first Dutch settlers on Staten Island; yellow brick roads in Brooklyn; clocks embedded in the sidewalk in Manhattan; bishop's-crook lampposts in Queens; a white elephant in the Bronx--this is New York and this is your guide to seeing it all. Forgotten New York covers all five boroughs with easy-to-use maps and suggested routes to hundreds of out-of-the-way places, antiquated monuments, streets to nowhere, and buildings from a time lost.--From publisher description.
