1818WRCLIT69871Leipzig: Johann Friedrich Gleditsch 1818. viii68pp. plus 34 engraved plates made more accessible by blank extensions from the inner gutter. Quarto. Frontis. Old calf-backed boards spine perished and boards detached. Some creasing and overfolds to folded plates scattered dusting and light foxing plate XXV detached from its extension and a trifle frayed at the fore-edge; just a good copy suitable for rebinding. Second edition first published in 1805. As the title suggests this is a practical manual rather than a treatment of history or aesthetics. The visual component is comprised largely of schematics and renderings of column designs with some attention to decorative detailing and stairways including precise measurements. The plates bear captions in French and German and many bear cutlines attributing them to "Champion sc." While the 1805 edition is well- represented in OCLC/Worldcat representation of the second edition is very slight. Johann Friedrich Gleditsch hardcover books

The French Grand Prix was first approved for publication by l'Academie d'architecture in 1787 and exhibited a profound influence on contemporary European architects of the time most notably Gilly and Schinkel. The work "may also suggest ideas to the contemporary architect. Indeed it may not be gross an oversimplification to suggest that the work of Le Corbusier is still unconsciously based on some of these traditions which are kept alive in France in spite of the changes in architectural idiom" Roseneau p. 21 Spine professionally restored some marginal staining overall a fine fresh copy of a luxurious publication.

1965D14218c. 1965. Hardcover. Near Fine. Rendering of proposed Penn Station / Madison Square Garden complex. Mixed media on board image measures 23.75x32.5 inches; board measures 29.75x37.5 inches; caption on paper label below image with loose matte board over both. Signed "Rudolph Asiou Jr." in image. Light spotting to image and mild staining from glue along bottom edge. <br/><br/>One of the creative submissions for the second incarnation of Pennsylvania Station after the original railroad landmark was demolished in 1963. The design features a brightly colored modernistic circular structure with parking decks offices and with a central interior top floor landscaped lounge area -- by Charles DuBose FAIA noted for his design of Constitution Plaza in Hartford. It was acclaimed in the 1960s as one of the first urban developments to effectively separate pedestrian movement from vehicular traffic with a series of raised landscaped terraces. The commission for Penn/Madison however was awarded to Charles Luckman's model in 1968 and that is the structure that still stands today that we've all come to know and loathe. The controversy over the demolition of the original building became the main catalyst for the current landmarks preservation movement in New York City. hardcover books
