Author Description

"In Beyond the Edge: New York's New Waterfront, Raymond W. Gastil presents a convincing case for the importance of inspired design in the revitalization of the city's waterfront. Through an insightful look at projects from around the world and at the current design proposals for New York itself, the author paints a portrait of redevelopment that is both pragmatic and visionary, one that holds the promise of reconnecting New Yorkers to their waterfront as a vital place of work and of public life."--Cover.
