Morningside Heights : A History of Its Architecture & Development Columbia History of Urban Life by Andrew Dolkart
"Every town, hamlet, and neighborhood deserves an historical portrait by Andrew Dolkart. His history of Morningside Heights is a magnificent work of scholarship that grows out of a true love of urbanism and a profound respect for the contribution of architects and developers, whether high-mined or not-so, to the vitality of place."
