Last Greak Bookstore in NYC 9/10/2009

I anticipated on breezing through Skyline Books, but ended up browsing up an hour. In terms of stock - especially the photography, art and literature sections - it's quite fantastic and the prices are quite reasonable. The staff is helpful and knowledgeable, especially the owner who told me he personally picks out each piece in the store. Pros: Photography, Art and Literature Sections; Great Staff Cons: Non-Fiction Section Under Construction more

What happened? 1/15/2008

This once great book store is now somewhat of a dump. The dust and mildew is strong in Skylines small space where you have to step over boxes of books to try to find anything. Except for the one woman who works there (who is extremely knowledgeable and friendly), the rest of the staff is rude, bitter, unknowledgeable and not very helpful. What happened? I long for the old days when this was one of the better book stores. more

Skyline has a lot of interesting books you probably won't find anywhere else. This is the store you come when you've been looking for that Walker Evans photography catalogue, or Andy Warhol book you haven't been able to find for years. They have an extensive inventory which leans heavily towards art and photography. Literary and Modern first editions, signed and unsigned fill the shelves as well. If you're a rare book collector, or just a book lover, this is your new favorite store. Pros: Selection, Ambience, Knowledgeable Staff more
