4.0 out of 5 stars Transformation Captured in pictures
This small volume is a photo essay that really captures Times Square during various stages of the 20th Century as the title claims. The pictures are fabulous with some wonderful page to page contrasts of the same views years apart. As someone who grew up near Times Square I found the photos from the 50's and 60's particularly striking since they reminded me of buildings...

3.0 out of 5 stars A little less than perfect
The book arrived within the specified time and the book jacket was in perfect condition. However, this book was a gift for someone else who was very happy to receive it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Transformation Captured in pictures, December 28, 2004
This review is from: The Century in Times Square (Hardcover)
This small volume is a photo essay that really captures Times Square during various stages of the 20th Century as the title claims. The pictures are fabulous with some wonderful page to page contrasts of the same views years apart. As someone who grew up near Times Square I found the photos from the 50's and 60's particularly striking since they reminded me of buildings and landmarks that are now gone. This is no comprehensive history just a nice collection of pictures with some commentary but I think it was worth having in my collection.

This review is from: The Century in Times Square (Hardcover)
The book arrived within the specified time and the book jacket was in perfect condition. However, this book was a gift for someone else who was very happy to receive it. She immediately started to flip through the pages, and to my embarrassment there was one page that had a tear in it. It wasn't a large tear but rather as if someone had dogeared the page and creased it too much causing the paper to tear off. Nonetheless, it marred an otherwise good experience.
