Summary:

Over the course of more than fifteen years, architect and critic Michael Sorkin has taken an almost daily walk from his apartment near Washington Square in New York's Greenwich Village to his architectural studio further downtown in Tribeca.
This walk has afforded abundant opportunities for Sorkin to reflect on the ongoing transformation of the neighbourhoods through which he passes; inspired by events both mundane and monumental, "Twenty Minutes in Manhattan" unearths a network of relationships between the physical and the social city.
