One Man's Obsessive Mission to Draw Every Building in New York
A new book by Australian artist James Gulliver Hancock captures all the ones he's done so far.
James Gulliver Hancock wants you to know about a little personal project of his. It's nothing big, really. Just something he does whenever he has the chance. The project is to draw all 900,000 buildings in New York City. Like we said, nothing major.
Hancock began his epic effort in April of 2010 along with a personal blog where he posted many of the finished works. More than 500 of the buildings in New York that he's drawn so far were just published in the very appropriately titled book: All the Buildings in New York: That I've Drawn So Far (Universe).
