After twelve months of research and production, we’re happy to announce that Geologic City: A Field Guide to the GeoArchitecture of New York is now available. We invite you to a launch party for the publication on September 8th, 6 p.m. at Studio-X NYC, an initiative of the Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation, Columbia University (180 Varick Street, Suite 1610). We’re excited that the event will be hosted by the Studio’s new co-directors, Geoff Manaugh and Nicola Twilley.
At the launch you will be able to experience an interactive exhibit based on the Guide, pick up your own full copy featuring 20 sites, and experience the work of two of our collaborators who have taken ideas key to Geologic City into their own processes and media. Details about their work will be posted soon. If you can’t make the launch, or if you can’t wait, you can pre-order a copy of Geologic City now (shipping on September 9th) or join FOP to have a copy shipped immediately.
It’s time to add the Field Guide to the flux of geologic actors that compose New York City and see how it gets activated—by all of you.

Congratulations. The guide looks fabulous. I anticipate using this new guide on my next visit to New York City.
