This book invites you to travel in a way that tourists rarely do, whether you're a lifelong New Yorker looking for an excuse to leave your apartment or a first time visitor searching for a companion that won't drag you around like a sightseer. Following her first best-selling book Don't be a Tourist in Paris, Vanessa Grall has taken on New York, teaming up with local New York writers and explorers Luke J Spencer, Francky Knapp and Scott Walker to create the ultimate compendium of unique ideas and off-beat addresses.
