description: From his 26th-floor window overlooking New York City's Eighth Avenue, Reiner Leist has kept an 11-year watch over the lower third of downtown Manhattan. Capturing the ever-moving foot of the metropolis day after day through the lens of his large-format antique camera, Leist has created a massive, evolutionary work that quietly documents the city as it lives, breathes and changes.Between 1995 and 2006, Leist accumulated more than 2,200 photographs. This book comprises a selection of his images from eleven September months, 1995 through 2005, recording a transformation of a world-famous skyline that no artist, no matter how visionary, could ever have foreseen.
