Description
First book to fully celebrate the scale model of The Panorama of the City of New York as a metropolis in miniature and a beloved cultural phenomenon. An awe-inspiring metropolis in miniature, The Panorama of the City of New York has achieved cult-like status with New Yorkers and serves as a locus of memory for visitors from around the globe. The Panorama was one of the most successful attractions at the 1964-65 World's Fair, with millions enjoying what was billed as an indoor helicopter tour of New York. Comprising an area of 9,335 square feet and built to a scale of 1:1200 (where one inch equals 100 feet), the original 1964 mini city was updated multiple times before its last renovation in 1992. Within the 320 square miles of New York City represented on The Panorama, you can find 850,000 buildings, more than 100 bridges, and almost all of the city's parks and streets. This is the first book to fully celebrate The Panorama, featuring an accessible text and photographs of its conception, creation, and enjoyment, as well as testimonials from notable New Yorkers about their beloved cultural phenomenon.
