The Tall Building Artistically Reconsidered by Ada Louise Huxtable
The skyscraper is the building type that dominates our cities, absorbs vast amounts of capital in design, construction and maintenance and houses large numbers of people in offices and apartments. Ada Louise Huxtable offers here an energetic defence of cities and a consideration of the skyscaper as art, as business and as the product of politics and speculation.
Ada Louise Huxtable was architecture critic at the New York Times from 1963 to 1982. Among the books she has written are Classical New York and Pier Luigi Nervi.
