Commercial Observer

The Gangs of New York: Who Rules Each Manhattan Zip Code

To determine who controls each of the borough’s nearly 50 ZIP codes, we combed the portfolios of Manhattan’s 20 largest owners and drafted a turf map of sorts. In cases where none of the 20 largest landlords owned office property, such as in the Lower East Side and parts of the West Village, no victor is listed.

Environs Map Series

The Environs Map Series is a living document of psycho-geographic maps. They are comprised of originalphotography, image compositing, and illustration collaged into an exact geography of a place. They are at once highly objective and subjective. The maps seek to capture the essence of the environment at the moment that the information and imagery are captured and created.
