Skyscraper Books

On this page I list my favourite skyscraper books. I will recommend only books that I own or books that I have read (in the library of my university). You can click on the images on the left side to check the price at Amazon.com . There are many more nice skyscraper books that I would recommend, but most of them aren´t avaiable at Amazon. I will visit the library more often to find more.

	Manhattan Skyscrapers This books describes many of the famous skyscrapers in Manhattan. Even 4 Times Square, completed in 1999 is mentioned in this book.
	Over Hong Kong Full of high quality air photographs of Hongkong taken by Richard Branson, the man who tried to surround the world with a balloon.
	Above Chicago Impressing air photos of Chicago´s highrises and suburbs. A must for every Chicago fan and everyone wo loves Chicago´s skyscrapers.
	SOM Evolutions: Recent Work of Skidmore, Owings & Merill Detailed information about the latest SOM projects, for example the new Penn Station in New York. Nice book, but quite expensive.
	Skyscrapers - The new Millennium Infomations about and photos of many new skyscrapers around the world, e.g. Jin Mao Building (Shanghai), Main Tower (Frankfurt), Swiss Re Tower (London) and many more.

More books will follow soon.
