Description

Featuring a newly discovered set of magnificent historical photographs, The City Beneath Us presents a range of prints from the collections of the New York Transit Museum. Reproduced in glorious duotone, over 175 images show the incredible construction techniques and details involved in creating the New York subway. From 'cut and cover' and deep tunneling to sinking under-river tubes and disastrous cave-ins, these photographs are awe-inspiring. The book is accompanied with an illustrated history of the subway system.
