Title: The Architecture of the Greenwich Village Waterfront. An Archival Research Study
Description: New York, New York University Press, 1998. First edition. Photo-illustrated paper wrappers. v, [1], 138 pp. Folio. 12 x 9 inches. Undertaken for The Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation. "Most people think that New York City's historic Greenwich Village is totally protected under law as a Historic District. It is not. Inexplicably left out of the designated District and in real jeopardy today for lack of preservation and planning safeguards is the adjoining Village waterfront. This surviving neighborhood of mixed use with its preponderance of nineteenth and turn-of-the-century buildings, its low skyline and open vistas to the sea, extends along the Hudson River from West Houston to West Fourteenth Streets," rear cover. A fine copy.
