Wear evident on jacket's spine. Minimal use. Text clean. Near Fine in Very Good jacket. ISBN: 9781614288909."At the southwest corner of Central Park lies one of Manhattanââ¬â¢s most trafficked intersections, and one of its greatest anomalies: Columbus Circle, the only roundabout in a city of right angles. Since its construction in the 1850ââ¬â¢s, the circle has become one of the boroughââ¬â¢s most iconic landmarks, immediately recognizable since 1982 by the grand, pillared monument to Christopher Columbus that dominates its center. But just as iconic is the building that mirrors it: a two-towered amalgam of glass, steel, and concrete, unveiled in 2003 as Time Warner Center.
