Seeing Networks in New York City

[somberi]

On a similar note, about NYC infrastructure design (not just data connectivity), I highly recommend Kate Ascher's "The Works: Anatomy of a city".

Cool article. Enjoyed this part:

> CrimeEye Cameras I've only seen these cameras in lower Manhattan, and pretty much only around federal buildings. They appear to belong to the Department of Homeland Security, and are manufactured by a company named Total Recall Corporation. (Not even joking.)

Very interesting, and can't wait to see the print edition.

Kate Ascher's "The Works: Anatomy of a City" from a few years ago is a similar book, but with a broader scope of NYC's infrastructure.
