The work explores the dramatic streetscapes that emerge where the rectilinear street pattern meets the challenging terrain, creating unique urban spaces that rise and fall through the landscape. Through this lens, the book reveals how the collision between planned urban design and natural geography has shaped one of America's most recognizable cities, offering insights into the relationship between urban form and landscape.
