Landmarks New York App Reviews

Very useful app! Great to use while walking around the city.

If you are even remotely interested in NYC architecture, or history in general, this app is a must-have. Fluid user interface, excellent mini articles written about each building, complete with links to the official Landmark documents, and Google-linked up-to-date street-view adjustable images. Hundreds of NYC landmarks, and hundreds of stories!

Great landmarks app, supports iPhone and iPad both well. Feature requests: Wikipedia links, and a way to “check off” already-visited landmarks.

I’m an architect and I’m loving walking around NYC looking up and learning the history of these great buildings as I stumble across them!

This is a neat app if you’re one of those people who walk around NYC and wonder about the history of the various buildings you see. Map function hones in on where you are, building photos make it easy to identify buildings. However, the info and narratives are a bit dated. In some cases I’ve found facts that are not accurate and have not been for over a decade.
