Mapping Manhattan: A Love (And Sometimes Hate) Story in Maps by 75 New Yorkers by Becky Cooper.

Cooper has been inviting people to draw and contribute their own maps of Manhattan on this collaborative Tumblr blog and has turned the best into a book. These are more than maps, they’re windows into people lives.

The last page of the book allows readers to draw their own map and mail it to Copper (last image above by Maria Popova). 

Pictured above: Yoko Ono, Sea-Attle, Matt Green, and Maria Popova.
