New Architecture in New Haven"This revised edition of "New architecture in New Haven" brings the record to date and reflects, in its selection of projects, the change in the nature of architecture as it responds to the social and economic demands fo the early 1970's. Federal and state participation in the city's projects, as elsewhere, has dropped off significantly, and the University can no longer afford the risk of the extravagant architectural gesture. The resulting attitude seems to have diminished the quantity but not the quality of architectural expression. Innovative solutions in housing and structural systems have taken priority over the elaborate spatial eloquence of the recent past. Included in this edition is a representative selection of New Haven architecture of the past fifteen years." -- introducció |
