111 Rooftops in New York That You Must Not Miss (111 Places in .... That You Must Not Miss) Paperback – May 23, 2019

Leslie Adatto discovered rooftops and changed the world for those lucky enough to follow her blog or read her earlier book. The pictures by Clay Williams are pieces of art in themselves, but the true achievement is the discovery that the tops of buildings in New York are just as alive and enthralling as the city below. Unique restaurants, gardens that provide locally grown food, and art exhibits are revealed along with directions on how to get to them. The range of places profiled is astonishing––from a sky-high ice-skating rink to summer film series to a Holocaust memorial––and any kind of food, drink, or atmosphere you can think of. Enjoy the book while taking notes on all the places you don't want to miss next time you're in New York. You're going to feel like your feet never touch the ground.

This is a charming book, perfect for relaxed browsing during spare moments. The huge variety of hidden rooftop gems are described in inspiring detail and presented with large, beautiful photos. Until now I have congratulated myself on successfully avoiding New York City, which to me seems large, noisy, dirty, and uninviting. But this lovely book shows another side - intimate, quiet, green, and built on a very human scale. There are bars and restaurants, of course, but also community gardens, a spa, a museum, a farm... If I'm ever convinced to visit NYC I will definitely be taking this book with me.

Leslie is the original rooftop explorer/author in NYC. Her first book on rooftops, Roof Explorer's Guide, was my go-to book on cool outdoor places to explore and experience for several years. This new book has 10 more locations than the original, and 70-ish that weren't in the first book. It's time to start checking them off the list...!

New York City is known worldwide as a vertical city. This book offers a host of opportunities to venture UP to look DOWN on the sprawling metropolis. Practical and informative, use this guide to explore NYC. Each page is a destination. Keith Michael, New York City WILD!

What a great mix of reasons to get up to the rooftops of NYC - bars, gardens, tennis, ice skating, and so much more! Will be using this guide for an upcoming trip.

This book is so cool!! I’m always trying to think of new places to tell my friends to check out that come in from out of town, and this book is gold!! I love the pictures!! Highly recommend.

Interesting to discover the city and have pleasant meals... also good as gift
