Completely updated with new photographs and text, New York from the Air is a lush, romantic, and ultimately hopeful tribute to one of the most thrilling cities in history. World-renowned bestselling photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand—shooting from vantage points few people ever attain—presents the power and beauty of Manhattan's amazing skyscrapers, the bucolic joys of Central Park, the majesty of the Upper West Side's castlelike apartment buildings, and much, much more. This new edition includes unpublished photographs of landmarks built since the 2003 edition. New York historian and cartographer John Tauranac's lively commentaries lead readers on a truly spectacular tour from above the city that never sleeps.
Praise for New York from the Air:
"No one, though, has revealed New York from above as vividly as Yann Arthus-Bertrand, the Paris-based photographer who has made a career of providing a heavenly perspective on the planet Earth. In his book, New York from the Air: A Story of Architecture (Abrams), he invokes Sartre in the preface, and transforms even the most ordinary street-level scenes into majestic, abstract cityscapes."
—New York Times
"Above IT ALL. New York from the Air hits new heights with fresh photos of an ever-evolving city."
—New York Daily News

reviewed New York from the Air on January 01, 2016 New York from the Air
The best coffee table book I know, and the author has the best job I know. He travels around the world, taking photographs from helicopters, and has trained his eye so that he can find beauty anywhere. Literally anywhere. Lush Pacific atolls, desert dunes and so on are easy, of course - he doesn't neglect the low-hanging fruit. On the other hand, his results are no worse when he photographs junked aircraft and concrete overpasses. I guess he tells them to smile or something.
I was fortunate enough to see an open air exhibition of his work in one of the Geneva parks. He had all the pictures up on big posters along both sides of the long central path. A friend and I spent a wonderful hour strolling around and looking at them.
