At informed much of the domestic and other second level ofthe Astor Street elevation is their meeting in Seattle, the Board ofDirec­ tors voted to rename the building the Charnley-Persky House in honor of this extraordinary benefaction. Mr. Persky's gift is one of outstanding generosity. He has given the SAH a landmark building of international importance and a modellabo­ ratory for architectural history, historic pres­ ervation, and urban history. Most readers ofJSAH are well aware of the significance of our new building. The Charnley House was designed in 1891 by the firm of Adler and Sullivan, where the commission was assigned to a rising junior member of the firm, Frank Lloyd Wright. Wright, indeed, later claimed that he alone was the designer of the Charnley House. But is that the case? Historians still dispute which architect had primary responsibil­ ity--ourfirst puzzle-andweigh the impor­ tance ofthe building for the careers ofthese giants ofAmerican architectural history. Could Sullivan deserve primary design creditfor the building? Not generally known for his work as a domestic architect, Louis Sullivan nevertheless imprinted his ideas on the construction, massing, and orna­ ment of the Charnley House design. In­ deed, his experiments in tall office building and mausoleum design, specifically the Wainwright Building in St. Louis and the Ryerson and Getty tombs in Gracelimd Cemetery, Chicago, demonstrate the use of interlocking yet discrete masses in two very different building types that recall the Charnley commission. But Wright'S own projects in these same years bear remarkable similarities to the form of the building. In many ways, the Charnley House was a dress rehearsal for Charnley-Persky House, Chicago, view ofthe stairwell.

    [email protected] - QUES IN ARCH HIST I Jump to Today Questions in Architectural History 1 Faculty: Zeynep Çelik Alexander, Reinhold Martin, Mabel O. Wilson Teaching Fellows: Oskar Arnorsson, Benedict Clouette, Eva Schreiner Thurs 11am-1pm Fall 2016 This two-semester introductory course is organized around selected questions and problems that have, over the course of the past two centuries, helped to define architecture’s modernity. The course treats the history of architectural modernity as a contested, geographically and culturally uncertain category, for which periodization is both necessary and contingent. The fall semester begins with the apotheosis of the European Enlightenment and the early phases of the industrial revolution in the late eighteenth century. From there, it proceeds in a rough chronology through the “long” nineteenth century. Developments in Europe and North America are situated in relation to worldwide processes including trade, imperialism, nationalism, and industrialization. Sequentially, the course considers specific questions and problems that form around differences that are also connections, antitheses that are also interdependencies, and conflicts that are also alliances. The resulting tensions animated architectural discourse and practice throughout the period, and continue to shape our present. Each week, objects, ideas, and events will move in and out of the European and North American frame, with a strong emphasis on relational thinking and contextualization. This includes a historical, relational understanding of architecture itself. Although the Western tradition had recognized diverse building practices as “architecture” for some time, an understanding of architecture as an academic discipline and as a profession, which still prevails today, was only institutionalized in the European nineteenth century.

Introduction The Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS) was started in 1933 as one of the New Deal make-work programs, to employ jobless architects, draftspeople, and photographers. Its purpose is to document the nation’s architectural heritage, especially those buildings that are in danger of ruin or deliberate destruction. Today, the HABS is part of the National Park Service and its repository is in the Library of Congress, much of which is available online at loc.gov. Of the tens of thousands HABS buildings, I found 44 Frank Lloyd Wright designs that have been digitized. Each HABS survey includes photographs and/or drawings and/or a report. I’ve included here what the Library of Congress had–sometimes all three, sometimes two of the three, and sometimes just one. There might be a single photo or drawing, or, such as in the case of Florida Southern College (in volume two), over a hundred.

    Fallen Angel A Case Study in Architectural Ornamentation w. arthur mehrhoff According to the late anthropologist James Deetz, we can decode cultural meanings from the past most fully by studying “small things often overlooked and even forgotten.”1 While architectural historians often train their scholarly lenses on landmark buildings and structures, vernacular objects such as doorways, gravestones, and even discarded architectural orna- ments offer students of culture a kind of intellectual “mortar” that can help them fit larger structures to- gether into a conceptual whole.2 The Museum of Art and Archaeology’s winged terracotta figure, a splendid example of architectural ornament and a survivor of urban redevelopment, was one of a series of similar figures that originally graced the elaborate frieze of the 1898 twelve-story Title Guaranty Building, one of the earliest tall office buildings in downtown St. Louis. The building, known at its construction as the Lincoln Trust Building, was destroyed in 1983.

  • A Historical Bibliography of Commercial Architecture in the United States
    A HISTORICAL BIBLIOGRAPHY OF COMMERCIAL ARCHITECTURE IN THE UNITED STATES Compiled by Richard Longstreth, 2002; last revised 7 May 2019 I have focused on historical accounts giving substantive coverage of the commercial building types that traditionally distinguish city and town centers, outlying business districts, and roadside development. These types include financial institutions, hotels and motels, office buildings, restaurants, retail and wholesale facilities, and theaters. Buildings devoted primarily to manufacturing and other forms of production, transportation, and storage are not included. Citations of writings devoted to the work of an architect or firm and to the buildings of a community are limited to a few of the most important relative to this topic. For purposes of convenience, listings are divided into the following categories: Banks; Hotels-Motels; Office Buildings; Restaurants; Taverns, etc.; Retail and Wholesale Buildings; Roadside Buildings, Miscellaneous; Theaters; Architecture and Place; Urbanism; Architects; Materials-Technology; and Miscellaneous. Most accounts are scholarly in nature, but I have included some popular accounts that are particularly rich in the historical material presented. Any additions or corrections are welcome and will be included in updated editions of this bibliography. Please send them to me at [email protected].

    secacNEWSLETTER ADDENDUM Vol. XXXVIII, no. 3 • http://www.furman.edu/secac Thoughts on the Cultural Impact of Katrina: People and Things and a web-site status report BY ROBERT M. CRAIG PART II: STATUS REPORT New Orleans My inquiry into the impact of Katrina on cultural resources in the region was undertaken because I currently serve as President of the Nineteenth Century Studies Association, and as an architectural historian, I see much of the physical New Orleans as a nineteenth century city, filled, street after street (and from high style to vernacular) with structures quintessentially nineteenth century. So much of the city is characterized by historic architecture and neighborhoods of vernacular Victorians with wood-framed, elaborately ornamented front porches; especially noteworthy are those unique “shot-guns” with rear second floor “camelbacks.” New Orleans’s architectural history, it might be said, almost started afresh as the nineteenth century opened, setting the stage for an essentially nineteenth-century place. Two extensive fires, one in 1788, and the other in 1794, devastated the city, destroying hundreds of 18th century buildings, both businesses and residences. New Orleans, and Louisiana, were under Spanish rule at the time, although the city, as it then existed, was a relatively crudely built French port and trading post. Nevertheless, it was ennobled by its open [Jackson] square dominated by St. Louis Cathedral (facade 1789-94, by G. Guillemard), and the Cabildo and Presbytery (both 1794-1813). The Presbytery was undergoing a $2 million renovation this past summer. The further development of the cathedral architecture by J. N. B. de Pouilly in1850, and the building of the Pontalba Apartments (1850s) on the sides of the square brought even this French Quarter focal urban space out of the colonial era and into the urbane nineteenth century.
