Summary:
The sites and stories of this publication shift our perception of what defines New York, placing the passion, determination, defeats, and victories of its people at the core. Delving into the histories of New York's five boroughs, you will encounter enslaved Africans in revolt, women marching for equality, workers on strike, musicians and performers claiming streets for their art, and neighbors organizing against landfills and industrial toxins and in support of affordable housing and public schools. The streetscapes that emerge from these groups' struggles bear the traces, and this book shows you where to look to find them. This book expands the scope and scale of traditional guidebooks, providing an equitable exploration of the diverse communities throughout the city. Through the stories of over 150 sites across the Bronx, Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn and Staten Island as well as thematic tours and contemporary and archival photographs, a people’s New York emerges, one in which collective struggles for justice and freedom have shaped the very landscape of the city.

'Le guide d'architecture Paris 1900-2008' réunit 1203 bâtiments qui racontent l'histoire du Paris contemporain pour découvrir et comprendre les grands chefs d'oeuvres, mais aussi les bâtiments plus confidentiels ou oubliés. Chacun d'eux est présenté par un texte, une photo contemporaine de la date de sa construction et, pour la plus grande partie, d'un plan. Le regard d'Eric Lapierre, qui est à la fois praticien et théoricien, resitue ces différentes réalisations dans le flux de l'évolution des conceptions architecturales au long du siècle, et décrit leurs aspects constructifs et techniques. Deux index, respectivement par noms de rues et par architectes, adossé à un jeu de cartes détaillées, permettent au promeneur de se repérer aisément, tant dans le livre lui-même que sur le terrain. Présentant presque un bâtiment par mois sur la durée de la période, cet ouvrage véritable guide et ouvrage de référence incontournable, invite à redécouvrir un Paris toujours renouvelé.

Summary:
Over the last decade, the look of the Estonian capital has been radically transformed. Part of this change is due to the emergence of new urban areas and a complete shift in perspective on historic neighbourhoods. Rather than focusing only on new buildings or competitively rating their aesthetic worth, this architecture guide selects works based on sustainability and technological modernism. Attention is paid to new buildings that adapt to the historical and environmental context, while typical and representative buildings are also pointed out in a broad cross-section of Estonian architectural culture. For this reason, examples of Stalinist and later Soviet architecture also appear.

Summary:
This guidebook showcases 150 buildings from the past 100 years starting with one of the most influential urban projects ever: the Gran Vía. This main avenue marked a milestone for Madrid which went from being a historic city to the modern capital that it is today. This intervention had been ongoing for almost two decades with the initial phase of construction reaching completion circa. 1917. A selection of the most relevant buildings thereafter until the present day sheds light on Madrid’s architecture in relation to its inherent historical context, including the need for the reconstruction of built heritage after the Spanish Civil War, the influence of the Franco dictatorship lasting for almost forty years, and the new materials and collaborative architecture that have arisen during the current economic crisis, among other aspects. Seven proposed routes lead us through the different districts that make up the city, as well as those historic epochs that have made Madrid the city it is today.
