Craig DiLouie June 8, 2009

The new 2009 NightSeeing Map, presented by the Illuminating Engineering Society, NYC Section, in association with the Designers Lighting Forum of New York, is now available to the general public. Here’s how IESNY describes it:

Unlike ordinary maps and guide books that simply provide visitors with the names of landmark buildings, notable construction facts and engineering feats, the exciting new 2009 NIGHTSEEING Map sheds a whole new light on city sightseeing. It is the only guide that highlights the most spectacular illuminated buildings, bridges and other remarkable sites in and around the Big Apple—and gives credit to the lighting designers who create all those magical and memorable sights of New York nights. From architectural masterpieces to the cutting edge of everything hip and trendy, if it has that special glow you can be sure NIGHTSEEING will show you the way to go.

Whether you are a first-time or frequent visitor to the city, a seasoned New Yorker or a lighting enthusiast, the one guide you will definitely want to have on hand is the new 2009 NIGHTSEEING Map with this self-guided walking tour: Lights, Camera, WALK. A Night Walking Guide to the Most Spectacular Lighting Designs of New York City.
