Description

Louisville is likely one of the overpassed gems of American architecture, a city of Southern charm and grace with a catalog of buildings by such masters as K.H. Burnham, Bruce Goff, and Herb Greene. Crucial destination for people serious about the whole lot from colonial to postmodern architecture, this riverfront city is historically wealthy, at the same time as being beautifully planned with a boulevard and park system designed by Frederick Law Olmsted.
The Louisville Guide takes readers on a journey in the course of the city, describing its most notable buildings at the same time as providing a whole overview of its architectural history. Essays by Louisville scholars Grady Clay and Edie Bingham add color and life to the tale of the city and its makers. From Carrere and Hastings’s Memorial Hall to Michael Graves’s Humana Building, The Louisville Guide offers visitors and residents alike never-before published scholarship of the city’s wealthy architectural heritage.
