Synopsis

Treating New York City as an open-air museum of signs, Thomas E. Rinaldi captures the glow of 200 surviving early- and mid-twentieth-century signs. In a generously illustrated introduction, Rinaldi recounts the development of signage and the technological evolution of neon. This colourful book comes as the disappearance of the original signs has inspired a growing interest in neon.

À propos de l?auteur

Raised near Poughkeepsie in upstate New York, Thomas E. Rinaldi visited New York City frequently before moving there in 2004. His life-long interest in the city s built landscape drove him to pursue a career in architecture: he works as a designer for Thornton Tomasetti, a leading engineering and architecture firm. Rinaldi holds degrees in history from Georgetown University and in historic preservation from Columbia University. He is the coauthor, with Robert J. Yasinsac, of Hudson Valley Ruins: Forgotten Landmarks of an American Landscape.
