Inhaltsangabe

This volume is a joy for anyone even the least bit interested in New York’s legal culture and landmarks. . . . The book belongs on your shelf and in your lap.
—Albert M. Rosenblatt, former Associate Judge of the New York Court of Appeals and President of The Historical Society of the New York Courts

New York’s Legal Landmarks Second Edition takes you on a tour of Gotham through the eyes of a history-loving New York City lawyer. You’ll visit courthouses past and present that were sites of sensational trials (both actual and in film), locations that figured in the nation’s constitutional history, law firms where great Americans practiced law and the homes, schools and final resting places of Supreme Court Justices. Whether you want to stroll down the Lower East Side’s Attorney Street or re-open the cold case of Judge Crater’s disappearance, New York’s Legal Landmarks is the guidebook for you.

Hats off to Robert Pigott for shining a bright light on this unexplored corner of New York City history. This updated edition of New York’s Legal Landmarks is a valuable research tool sprinkled with unexpected and delightful nuggets of legal, social, and architectural history.
—Michael Miscione, Manhattan Borough Historian

This is the second edition of the original book that was released in 2014. The 2014 first edition had nine customer reviews with average rating of 4.8 stars.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Robert Pigott has been practicing law in New York City for over 30 years, and, though he began walking at an unremarkable age, has been exploring its streets for over 50 years. A specialist in nonprofit law, he has worked in private practice and the New York Attorney General’s Charities Bureau, and he is now the general counsel of a 100-year-old New York City nonprofit organization. He went to elementary and junior high schools in Queens, to high school on East 15th Street and to law school on West 116th Street. He lives in Manhattan, one block from where he was born, with his wife and two children.
