ABOUT

New York Neon is a new book released by W.W. Norton that presents a documentary homage to old neon signs in New York. The primary motivation for this project is to record the significance of these signs as works of design that characterized New York's 20th century streetscapes. This blog will feature occasional news items related to New York's dwindling number of old neon signs, as well as sundry "cutting room floor" items that didn't make it into the book.

New York Neon is available from your local bookseller, or can be ordered via Norton or online retailers such as Amazon, Barnes & Noble , Indiebound, and Powell's.
