Résumé:

Universally recognized as an architectural center, the city of Chicago contains some of the world's finest buildings by the most renowned architects of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Sullivan, Daniel Burnham, Mies van der Rohe, and many more left their stamp on the city's skyline and as a result influenced the practice of architecture around the globe. This book, published in association with the city's foremost architectural institution, the Chicago Architectural Foundation, features an in-depth analysis of 42 buildings erected within the last two centuries that are considered to be the seminal works of Chicago architecture.
