Welcome

Who is Ken Grant, and why does he have more than 20,000 photos of buildings in two dozen cities?

That’s me. I’ve been fascinated with architecture almost all my life. After 40 years as a travel journalist and web developer, I retired and finally had time to pursue architectural photography seriously. What started as a hobby quickly became a passion—and a second career.

High-Quality Urban Architecture Images

My collection includes thousands of images of buildings across minor and major cities, from iconic landmarks to hidden architectural gems. Architects, publishers, and design firms have licensed my photos for publications, presentations, and marketing materials.

This site showcases some of my architectural photography, organized by city, neighborhood, and building. Whether you’re searching for images of modernist skyscrapers, historic structures, or contemporary urban design, you’ll find detailed galleries of buildings from New York City (my home) and more than a dozen other cities I’ve visited in the last dozen years.

Browse by City

Each city page includes a searchable table of photographed buildings. New galleries are added regularly. Don’t see what you need? Contact me for additional images or custom photography requests. You’ll also find resources – websites and books – to help you explore each locale and its built environment.

City pages link to neighborhood pages, where you’ll find each location’s details and images.
