    It would be nice to include a section of projects whose focus is on the interior. Say, OMA’s Prada, Asymptote’s Alessi, Fuksas’ Armani, Heatherwick for Longchamp, etc.

    Also, HdM’s 30 Bond Street is worth including, even if it is just a fence.

    NYC just has too much to see. A guide would be great if it broke down the projects into types…interiors, contemporary, historic, sustainable, landscape, etc.
