Chosen for outstanding design, site usage, and community impact, each project is an outstanding example of the beauty and diversity of the modern urban waterfront, including Monterey Bay Aquarium (California); Harbour Town (Hilton Head, South Carolina); Horace Dodge Memorial Fountain (Detroit); Coastal Cement Corporation Terminal (Boston); Cincinnati Gateway Riverwalk; Roebling Bridge/Delaware Aqueduct (Pennsylvania and New York); and many more."

Encompassing harbor front, shoreline, lakefront, and riverfront development, in cities of all sizes, the projects establish useful precedents and inspire creative ideas for those planning and designing new waterfront projects." "You'll also benefit from a unique historic review of the factors that created today's urban waterfront phenomenon, with an expert assessment of their social, cultural, technological, and economic impact on the reemerging American city." "The first truly comprehensive review of the dynamic urban waterfront...packed with case studies, maps, bibliographies, and magnificent illustrations...and addressing both design challenges and marketing potential...Waterfronts is an information-packed resource for all architects, citizen's groups, urban planners, developers, municipal leaders, students, and urban historians."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book City of Light

  • Author : Jenny Gregory
  • Publisher : UWA Publishing
  • Release : 2003
  • ISBN : 9780959463255
  • Pages : 422 pages

Download or read book City of Light written by Jenny Gregory and published by UWA Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1962 a lone astronaut orbiting the Earth sighted a small cluster of lights on the dark silhouette of Australia's western coastline - a token of friendship from the people of Perth that prompted the world's media to dub this isolated provincial outpost the "City of Light". This book expands the metaphor by shedding new light on the social history of Perth since the 1950s. Its focus is the city center and the events that unfolded there. After a lively sketch of prewar Perth, Jenny Gregory ventures into the historically uncharted territory of the postwar era. The result is a frank, incisive and richly detailed investigation of the city's growth and transformation over a fifty-year period, from the modernist era of postwar reconstruction to the mid-nineties.

Book Upstate Girls

    Book Details:
  • Author : Brenda Ann Kenneally
  • Publisher : Simon and Schuster
  • Release : 2018-08-28
  • ISBN : 1942872844
  • Pages : 434 pages

Download or read book Upstate Girls written by Brenda Ann Kenneally and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-08-28 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the tradition of Dorothea Lange and Robert Frank, an eye-opening portrait of the rise and fall of the American working class, and a shockingly intimate visual history of Troy, New York that arcs over five hundred years—from Henry Hudson to the industrial revolution to a group of contemporary young women as they grow, survive, and love. Welcome to Troy, New York. The land where mastodon roamed, the Mohicans lived, and the Dutch settled in the seventeenth century. Troy grew from a small trading post into a jewel of the Industrial Revolution. Horseshoes, rail ties, and detachable shirt collars were made there and the middle class boomed, making Troy the fourth wealthiest city per capita in the country. Then, the factories closed, the middle class disappeared, and the downtown fell into disrepair. Troy is the home of Uncle Sam, the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, the Rensselaer County Jail, the photographer Brenda Ann Kenneally, and the small group of young women, their children, lovers, and families who Kenneally has been photographing for over a decade. Before Kenneally left Troy, her life looked a lot like the lives of these girls. With passion and profound empathy she has chronicled three generations—their love and heartbreak; their births and deaths; their struggles with poverty, with education, and with each other; and their joy. Brenda Ann Kenneally is the Dorothea Lange of our time—her work a bridge between the people she photographs, history, and us. What began as a brief assignment for The New York Times Magazine became an eye-opening portrait of the rise and fall of the American working class, and a shockingly intimate visual history of Troy that arcs over five hundred years. Kenneally beautifully layers archival images with her own photographs and collages to depict the transformations of this quintessentially American city. The result is a profound, powerful, and intimate look at America, at poverty, at the shrinking middle class, and of people as they grow, survive, and love.

This book was released on 2014-11-01 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Silver Winner, 2014 ForeWord IndieFab Book of the Year Award in the Women's Studies Category 2015 Lambda Literary Award in Lesbian Memoir/Biography presented by the Lambda Literary Foundation 2015 Judy Grahn Award for Lesbian Nonfiction presented by the Publishing Triangle As an organizer, writer, publisher, scholar-activist, and elected official, Barbara Smith has played key roles in multiple social justice movements, including Civil Rights, feminism, lesbian and gay liberation, anti-racism, and Black feminism. Her four decades of grassroots activism forged collaborations that introduced the idea that oppression must be fought on a variety of fronts simultaneously, including gender, race, class, and sexuality. By combining hard-to-find historical documents with new unpublished interviews with fellow activists, this book uncovers the deep roots of today's "identity politics" and "intersectionality" and serves as an essential primer for practicing solidarity and resistance.
