Near Prospect Park / by Levy, Lawrence H.,author.(CARDINAL)408431;
"It's December 1896, and detective Mary Handley has done the last thing anyone expected of her: settled down. After falling in love with muckraking reporter Harper Lloyd, she turns her focus from pursuing new cases to raising her daughter Josephine. Little does she know her new-found happiness isn't fated to last - and neither is her break from policework. When her husband turns up dead while pursuing a big story, Mary knows her next case must be solving his death. Harper was working on a big story - did it get him killed? As she sets out to solve his murder, she soon discovers that the case goes all the way to the top and may even involve some of wealthiest members of New York society, including the playwright W.S. Gilbert, the actress Faye Templeton, the architect Stanford White, and philanthropist Andrew Carnegie. Realizing she's outgunned and desperate for justice, Mary turns to the one person who might be able to help: Commissioner Teddy Roosevelt. But as the two dig deep into the seedy underbelly of New York's social scene, they uncover a sinister conspiracy built around exploiting the city's most vulnerable citizens"--

Great city parks / by Tate, Alan,1951-author.(CARDINAL)782999;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Great City Parks is a celebration of some of the finest achievements of landscape architecture in the public realm. It is a comparative study of twenty significant public parks in fourteen major cities across western Europe and North America. As a collection they give a clear picture of why parks have been created, how they have been designed, how they are managed, and what plans are being made for them at the beginning of the twenty-first century.""Great City Parks is based on unique research including extensive site visits and interviews with their managing organizations. The text is amplified by new plans and photographs of each park. This book reflects a belief that well-planned, well-designed and well-managed parks remain invaluable components of liveable and hospitable cities. Great City Parks will appeal to practitioners and students of landscape architecture, architecture, urban planning and park management, and to people who appreciate the special role of parks in urban environments."--Jacket.
