KATE ASCHER

12/13/2011 7:00 pm
In her new book, The Heights: Anatomy of a Skyscraper (Penguin Press), Kate Ascher, a noted urban planner/developer and former executive with the Economic Development Corporation for the City of New York, follows up her earlier, very engaging book, The Works: Anatomy of a City. Like its predecessor, it's a gorgeous, illustrated primer on how these buildings so easily taken for granted really function. From conception to drawing to digging then building and operating, this is a guided tour unlike any written before.
