Book Synopsis
Excavates the skeletons of some of our most iconoclastic buildings, spurring on an engagement with those intentionally (World Trade Center) and accidentally (Charles DeGaulle Airport Terminal) destroyed that furthers our fascination with what makes buildings stand up, and what makes them fall down.

Trade Review
"These magnificent photographs capture the romance of construction sites with the precision and poetry and insistent probing curiosity we have come to expect from Stanley Greenberg. For lovers of photography, architecture, city life, or simply the physical world, this book is a must-have." - Phillip Lopate.
