Association of Student Chapters/A IA Marchi April 1981 3 We put the finishing touches on Frank Lloyd Wright's masterpiece. Despite the concerned and diligent efforts of the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy, decades of intense weathering and constant exposure to water had taken a heavy toll on Frank Lloyd Wright's famous" Fallingwater': A five-year-old coat of paint was blistered and peeling, and much of the concrete was pitted and spalled. Because of its artistic and historic value, restoration architects Curry, Martin and Highberger took the absolute strongest corrective and protective measures possible. They specified that Thoro System Products be used throughout. After sandblasting, contractors Mariani and Richards brought the surface back to its original form with Thorite, a non-slumping, quick-setting patching material (mixed with Acryl 60 for enhanced bonding and curing). Then the entire home was covered with Thoroseal. Thoroseal is harder and more wear-resistant than concrete, 100% waterproof, and bonds so tenaciously that it becomes an actual part of the wall. Permanently locking out moisture and dampness. To match the original architects' color spc<.:ifka tion, a coat of Thoroshccn masonry paint was applied over the Thoroscal. An ounce of prevention and a pound of cure. We're Thoro System Products, and when ii l'<>mes lo restoring or protecting an architect's de-,igns in masonry and concrete, we've been doing it better and more often than anybody else for over 65 years.

  • An Analysis of the 50-Year Rule, 1966-2010

Proponents of the recent past argue that by restricting evaluation of historic architecture to only that which is 50-years or older is leading to widespread endangerment and demolition of buildings and sites with periods of significance from the postwar era. This report studies the use of criterion G in-depth since the inception of the National Register program and attempts to identify and quantify the resources lost through continued adherence to the 50-year rule. The analysis is done in two parts.

  • Robert George Reichert, Architect Jeffrey Scott Murdock a Thesis
    Robert George Reichert, Architect Jeffrey Scott Murdock a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science, Architecture University of Washington 2019 Committee: Brian McLaren Jeffrey Ochsner Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Architecture ©2019 Jeffrey Scott Murdock University of Washington ABSTRACT Robert George Reichert, Architect Jeffrey Scott Murdock Supervisory Committee: Brian McLaren and Jeffrey Ochsner Department of Architecture Robert George Reichert, Seattle architect, practiced as a sole proprietor in the city from 1952 until his death in 1996. He learned both to design and to play the organ at a very young age, and developed strong ideas about the meaning of architecture, notions that would guide his practice throughout his career. He studied under Walter Gropius at Harvard during a period of rationalist education and practice. Practicing in a vibrant architectural culture in post-World War II Seattle, Reichert chose a solitary path in which he believed the meaning of his work was romantic and spiritual, and his individual projects could be described in terms of their affective content rather than purely functionalist design. This thesis tells the story of Reichert’s life and career, drawing primarily on original documents in the Reichert Collection at the University of Washington Libraries Special Collections. The thesis places this iconoclastic artist-architect in the context of his time and place and seeks to frame his architecture and thought in a wider context. TOC.1 Robert George Reichert.

  • NATIONAL NEWS| Winter 2008
    Changes to Halprin’s Landmark Freeway Park in Seattle Originally designed by Lawrence Halprin and Associates, the plantings at Seattle’s Freeway Park are currently being updated by Seattle landscape architect and University of Washington professor Iain Robertson, who aims to “not change the character of the park, but to recharge the design." Executed by Mr. Halprin’s office under the design direction of Angela Danadjieva, Freeway Park is one of the best preserved masterworks of post-war landscape architecture, yet the horticultural requirements of the plants necessitate renewed attention to the origi- nal design intent. However, its fate may also be a bellweather for the future of modernist architecture, landscapes and engineering feats associated with the interstate highway system across the country. After the publication of Halprin’s book Freeways in Aerial view of the park over Interstate 5 in downtown Seattle circa 1999. 1966 and his work with the Freeway Park, Seattle, WA (Photo courtesy of the City of Seattle) Federal Highway Administration’s Urban Advisors group, the Seattle Parks Commission sought his assistance in designing a park along the edge of the new interstate gorge. Rather than confining himself to the proposed plot of land, Halprin pushed the ideas in his book into the cityscape by proposing an extensive landscape that scaled down the impact of the freeway for both driver and pedestrian by building right over it. Rather than balking at this audacious plan, the city bun- dled the proposal into the county-wide open space

  • Realms of Remembered Violence: the Emergence of Mass Murder Memorials in the United States, 1986-2012
    Realms of Remembered Violence: The Emergence of Mass Murder Memorials in the United States, 1986-2012 Jordan Hill Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Social, Political, Ethical & Cultural Thought Marian B. Mollin, Chair Francois Debrix Howard S. Gartner David Cline Kathleen W. Jones September 23, 2014 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: Mass Murder Memorial, Memory, Ritual, Commemoration, Nationalism, Memorialization, Spatial History, U.S. History Copyright 2014, Jordan Hill Realms of Remembered Violence: The Emergence of Mass Murder Memorials in the United States, 1986-2012 Jordan Hill ABSTRACT This research explores the new tradition of creating mass murder memorials in the United States at the turn of the twenty-first century. Using written and oral history sources in combination with memorial designs, I explore the planning processes undertaken by five different communities: Virginia Tech, Columbine, University of Texas, Oklahoma City and Edmond, OK. I analyze what these case studies reveal about how changing cultural expectations and political needs transformed commemorative practices concerning violence in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. By exposing how the timely interventions of national figures increasingly shaped local commemorative aspirations, my research illuminates how the brief period of national unity in the immediate aftermath has been discursively and materially foregrounded as the heart of national public memory narratives of mass murder. I argue that at the turn of the twenty- first century the memory of victims of mass murders—assuming something akin to the role that fallen soldiers have played for the bulk of American history—are now viewed by a range of political, religious and cultural actors as a highly effective means of bolstering perceptions of local, organizational and national unity.
