(EMAILWIRE.COM, March 06, 2002 ) After a decade hiatus, April 2002 marks the return of the Special New York issue of Architectural Digest. The last issue devoted to the Big Apple was published in November 1992 and featured a stunning night shot of lower Manhattan and the Twin Towers on the cover.

Paige Rense, editor-in-chief states in her editor's letter, "After September 11, the whole world became focused on New York and New Yorkers. We recognized in the city and its residents a profound strength of character that could not be crushed. Overnight, New York became the international beacon of courage, tenacity, resilience and hope."
