Summary:
At its founding, Boston was a small peninsula; over the last 375 years the city has doubled in size by filling in the surrounding tidal flats -areas covered with water at high tide and exposed at low. In "Walking tours of Boston's made land", historian Nancy Seasholes outlines twelve walks that trace where and why Boston's man-made land was created, and, along the way, uncovers fascinating and little-known pieces of Boston history. In the course of these walks - around the central waterfront, Back Bay, Beacon Hill, the South End, Charlestown, and elsewhere - she shows us how Boston's past is always just below the surface of its present. Each walk is accompanied by a map that shows the route and original shoreline. The walks are illustrated with historical maps, historical photographs and views, and current photographs. All walks are accessible by public transportation.

Summary:
Massive changes in household structures and a conscious demand for ecologically built housing have led to radical changes in the housing field. No longer can the classical family automatically be taken as the basis for urban housing concepts. Flexible designs based on ecological principles and an emphasis on outdoor space are now in demand. Thus architects are being called upon, just as it was in the 20s, to deliver new concepts. This volume presents the buildings with their underlying concepts of a number of architects who have done just that. It serves both as a source of inspiration and a reference work for all those involved in housing. The Department of Housing and the Economics of Housing at the Technical University, Munich intends to publish a new volume covering the latest housing projects every two years.
