MAS originated the architectural walking tour in New York City in 1956 and we’re still at it — last year, more than 10,000 people participated in MAS tours. Now, we’ve published The Municipal Art Society of New York – 10 Architectural Walks in Manhattan (W.W. Norton & Company), a detailed, engaging, and lavishly illustrated guidebook to ten of the city’s most compelling districts.

Francis Morrone and Matthew A. Postal, preeminent MAS guides with over 10 years experience leading visitors to all parts of the city &mdash assisted by the fantastic photography of Edward A. Toran &mdash serve as your leaders as you navigate the city on foot.

Designed for visitors, students, newcomers, and seasoned New Yorkers eager to learn more about the bricks, brownstones and glass towers they live among, The Municipal Art Society of New York – 10 Architectural Walks in Manhattan includes a walk along Park Avenue’s prestigious corporate addresses, an informative stroll among New York’s earliest skyscrapers, a view of Central Park’s structures and sculpture, a detailed look inside Grand Central Terminal, where MAS has given weekly tours since 1978, and a peek at The High Line, New York’s newest and only elevated park, among other areas.
