A photo series on unrealised mega-projects in New York City. These things are always quite fun, even if none of this ever had a chance of being built--also gives context to follies like Johnson's 'Estuary Airport'. It may be near London, but the basic mechanism by which it comes to be conceived is the same--a divorce from reality.
