“Use to activate a secret passageway (or turn on a lamp). When placed in a bookshelf, this electrical switch uses your favorite hard-bound book, without damaging it, to conceal its true function. Lamp not included.”

supersonicelectronic:SUPERSONIC REVIEWS: HIGH LINE-High Line: The Inside Story of New York City’s Park in the Sky offers a intriguing look into the development and design of the iconic, beautiful park by the project’s co-founders Joshua David and Robert Hammond. The book, perfectly designed by Pentagram, holds the story of how the High Line came to be, from the original elevated railway on Manhattan’s west side until it’s reclamation and urban renewal as an elevated park. With over 250 pages of photographs, High Line, is certainly attention worthy. But, perhaps, the book’s most wonderful attribute is the artistic and design sensitive ideals that David and Hammond held so dearly in the production of the park.

Absolutely my favorite place. Looks like I’ll have to get this book!
