I saw a small piece of this map in Edward Tufte's Envisioning Information second chapter. I think it would be a good gift for a couple of friends. Does anyone know if it's still available from any source? I tried to find it by google and amazon means but had no luck.
The Isometric Map of Midtown Manhattan (by Costantine Anderson)

Ask Edward Tufte - he has a question blog on his website - EdwardTufte.com

I picked one up years ago, I think through the man himself. Maybe he was sellng them at his seminars...

I remember this -- bought one when it first came out and was still longing to move back to "da city".
Wish I could remember where I put it, unless my ex got it in the divorce!
I'll try Tufte. Hrant, on the book there is a mention about the density of type per square centimeter, I'll brig it to the thread.
