This book does a great job of exploring the city's skyscrapers through the ages, as well as some of our recently completed supertalls like One57 and 432 Park Avenue. It also touches on some of the supertalls currently under construction. It's the most complete collection to date on the rich skyscraper history and legacy that only New York City has so much of. I highly recommend it to any skyscraper fan. We all need to look up more, and not just at what's under construction.

Funny you mention that, just a couple of weeks ago I stumbled upon that book on amazon. They have it in supply since June. The German edition is named "NY Skyscrapers: Über den Dächern von New York City" (30€).
I do believe it's worth buying.
