Résumé:
In the popular imagination, the controversial 1963 demolition of Pennsylvania Station gave birth to New York City’s historic preservation movement. As the author reveals, however, historic preservation has been a persistent force in the development of New York since the 1890s, when the city’s leading politicians, planners, and architects first recognized the need to preserve the rapidly evolving city’s past. Rich with archival research, this book documents the emergence of historic preservation in New York at the turn of the twentieth century. Between 1890 and 1920, preservationists saved and restored buildings, parks, and monuments throughout the city’s five boroughs that represented continuity with the past.

Résumé:
L'usine, où suaient nos grands-parents, s'est changée au musée. La bibliothèque, rebaptisée médiathèque, brille comme un diamant au coin de la rue. Les vieux quartiers, où l'on hésitait naguère à s'aventurer, sont des centres commerciaux à ciel ouvert. Les ronds-points sont nos arcs de triomphe... En pleine révolution, la géographie de nos villes bouscule nos repères familiers. L'école, la mairie, la halle ne se ressemblent plus. L'architecture n'affirme rien, elle interroge. Jean-Louis André donne ici une réponse en images, retraçant une histoire originale de l'urbanisme.

Résumé:
This title showcases design and practice-based approaches to the sustainable, adaptive reuse of historic places in Australia. Building on their extensive research in the field, authors Hannah Lewi and Cameron Logan have engaged with a range of leading architects and heritage practitioners to gain firsthand insights into their methods and experiences with the delicate and complex task of creating contemporary spaces from much-loved, but timeworn, buildings.One of the most powerful ways architects have of building more sustainably is arguably by building as little as possible. The informed conservation and adaptive reuse of existing built fabric, when weighed against total demolition and new building, can offer dramatically lower construction emissions, richer cultural environments and longer lasting, more socially connected urban spaces.

Résumé:
Ernest Batchelder's ceramic tile making enterprise began as a modest backyard venture in rural Pasadena, California but quickly grew to prominence far beyond. New York, Minneapolis and Vancouver would soon become host to major Batchelder architectural ceramic installations. His clients ranged from restaurants to churches to high-rise office buildings but perhaps the most striking installations remain the many fireplaces gracing modest American bungalows throughout the country. This book represents the first comprehensive overview of his tilemaking.
