The Promise Of American Architecture

The Promise of American Architecture is a collection of speeches delivered at the annual dinner of the American Institute of Architects in 1905 by renowned architect Charles Moore. In this book, Moore discusses the state of architecture in America at the turn of the 20th century and offers his vision for the future of the profession. He addresses issues such as the need for architects to embrace new technologies and materials, the importance of creating buildings that reflect the unique character of American culture, and the role of architecture in shaping the social and political landscape of the country. Moore's insights and ideas continue to be relevant to architects and architectural enthusiasts today, making this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and evolution of American architecture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
