### 2/5 — Only Manhattan landmarks, not many search options.

*2013-03-23*

This app only includes Manhattan Landmarks and it needs more search options. It also puts the Manhattan Bridge arch at Bridge & Broadway in the Financial District, it is on Canal street. - way off.

### 3/5 — Disappointing

*2026-04-18*

The details on each entry are great, but the choice of buildings to include is very incomplete. So many times I walked past important historic buildings and there was no entry for that building. A disappointment.

### 4/5 — Fun app, a bit dated though

*2023-12-03*

This is a neat app if you’re one of those people who walk around NYC and wonder about the history of the various buildings you see.  Map function hones in on where you are, building photos make it easy to identify buildings. 
However, the info and narratives are a bit dated.  In some cases I’ve found facts that are not accurate and have not been for over a decade.

### 4/5 — Really good app!!

*2013-12-08*

If you are into history, architecture and the unique  building styles of New York city, this is the app to have! I wish they had an iPad version and wish that it worked in both portrait and landscape modes.

### 5/5 — So Fun!

*2022-03-26*

I’m an architect and I’m loving walking around NYC looking up and learning the history of these great buildings as I stumble across them!

### 5/5 — Great, Simple

*2020-06-30*

Great landmarks app, supports iPhone and iPad both well.

Feature requests: Wikipedia links, and a way to “check off” already-visited landmarks.

### 5/5 — Stellar A+

*2020-06-16*

If you are even remotely interested in NYC architecture, or history in general, this app is a must-have.

Fluid user interface, excellent mini articles written about each building, complete with links to the official Landmark documents, and Google-linked up-to-date street-view adjustable images.

Hundreds of NYC landmarks, and hundreds of stories!

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2015-02-10*

Very useful app! Great to use while walking around the city.

### 5/5 — Very Robust

*2014-05-31*

Great app, found my apartment building and I learned a lot!

### 5/5 — A must-have app.

*2013-09-04*

Whether you're just visiting or a resident of NYC, this is a must-have app for your iPhone or iPad. An in-depth history about a vast array of NYC's most iconic (and even the unheralded) buildings makes this app a truly useful guide and tool.

### 5/5 — Gems of NYC

*2013-08-18*

This is the NYC app I've been waiting for. Every historical nook and cranny is noted in detail.  If you liked London secret gems you will love this app. This will transform my next visit to my favourite city. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Very helpful

*2013-08-08*

Great way to explore the city

### 5/5 — Wonderful app for history, architecture, urban exploration!

*2013-07-28*

A fantastic app for exploring NYC -- the best I've found for those interested in the city's history and architecture.  It was great even before the latest update, providing a informative summaries -- and map of -- architectural landmarks and easy way of locating those near one's current location.  The update makes it even better, integrating Google Street view images.  Would love to see the developer create similar apps for Chicago, Boston, DC and other cities.

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2012-09-08*

Great for seeing the city
