Résumé:
This issue commemorates the 200th anniversary of the Manhattan Grid by looking at it from a number of perspectives. The first part presents visualizations of census and zoning data made available by the city, as well as photographs and axonometric drawings to illustrate the changes and realities of Manhattan over the past two centuries.

Résumé:
The Lower Manhattan Expressway (LME) was first conceived by "master builder" Robert Moses in the late 1930s as an expressway system running across Lower Manhattan. The idea was revisited by architect Paul Rudolph in 1967 when the Ford Foundation commissioned a study of the project. Had it been constructed, this major urban design plan would have transformed New York City’s topography and infrastructure. Presenting the only records of Rudolph’s visionary proposal, this exhibition catalog illuminates Rudolph’s unique approach to architectural drawing and highlights the fundamental importance of drawing in his overall practice.
