NEH has designated BUS online a We the People project for its role in strengthening the teaching, study and understanding of American history and culture. NEA Funds BUS Mississippi and Teacher Workshops At the end of the month, NEA notified SAH that it would fund the initial stages of research for Buildings of Mississippi by Jennifer Baughn and Michael Fazio. The grant also will support dissemination of that research to pre-collegiate teachers throughout the State. The grant signals a new concern on the part of the SAH Board that the Society can and should play a role in developing materials that pre- collegiate teachers can use to bring architectural history and historic preservation to the classroom.

Modern Domestic Architcture in and Around Ithaca, Ny: the “Fallingwaters” of Raymond Viner Hall
MODERN DOMESTIC ARCHITCTURE IN AND AROUND ITHACA, NY: THE “FALLINGWATERS” OF RAYMOND VINER HALL A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Mahyar Hadighi January 2014 © 2014 Mahyar Hadighi ABSTRACT This research examines the role of Modern architecture in shaping the American dream through the work of a particular architect, Raymond Viner Hall, a Frank Lloyd Wright follower, in Ithaca, NY. Modernists’ ideas and Modern architecture played significant roles in the twentieth century post-depression urban history. Although the historic part of historic preservation does not commonly refer to twentieth century architecture, mid-century Modern architecture is an important part of the history and its preservation is important. Many of these mid-century Modern examples have already been destroyed, mainly because of lack of documentation, lack of general public knowledge, and lack of activity of advocacy groups and preservationists. Attention to the recent past history of Ithaca, New York, which is home of Cornell University and the region this research survey focuses on, is similarly not at the level it should be. Thus, in an attempt to begin to remedy this oversight, and in the capacity of a historic preservation-planning student at Cornell (with a background in architecture), a survey documenting the Modern architecture of the area was conducted. In the process of studying the significant recent history of Ithaca, a very interesting local adaptation of Wrightian architecture was discovered: the projects of Raymond Viner Hall (1908-1981), a semi-local Pennsylvanian architect, who was a Frank Lloyd Wright follower and son of the chief builder of Fallingwater. -

Larry’s recollections bear witness to ideas, events and personalities of the recent past and has become an increasingly important and much consulted resource for students and scholars locally and worldwide. His testimony has proven to be a vital link connecting the career of his father Dwight Heald Perkins (1867-1941), a prominent Prairie School architect, with the history of Larry’s own career and that of the firm he co-founded in 1935 with Philip Will, the Perkins and Will we know today.
