{"product_id":"williamsburg-victor-lederer-9781531622428","title":"Williamsburg","description":"There is no New York neighborhood that boasts a richer history or more exciting present than Williamsburg. At first a quiet waterside community, Williamsburg briefly became a wealthy suburb of Manhattan in the middle of the nineteenth century. Heavy industrialization and a tidal wave of immigrants later turned Williamsburg into New York's poorest, most crowded quarter. With images drawn chiefly from the rich photographic collection of the Brooklyn Historical Society, Williamsburg illustrates the neighborhood's transformation from one of New York's most impoverished and least fashionable neighborhoods to a modern-day example of the city's capacity for self-renewal.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Victor Lederer, The Brooklyn Historical Society, Brooklyn Historical Society\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1531622429\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781531622428\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing Library Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/29\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.38d","brand":"Victor Lederer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43996306702591,"sku":"9781531622428","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_55a2d22b-b384-449a-9558-fcd97f2f51a2.jpg?v=1683340931","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/williamsburg-victor-lederer-9781531622428","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
