Pages clean and unmarked. NOT Ex-Library. [From back cover] FACADE STORIES is about building fronts in the commercial districts of American towns and what has happened to them over time. From multi-million dollar renovations to modest storefront fix-ups, before and after photographs reveal how facades have been preserved, restored, adapted, left as free standing sculptures, or reduced to fragments or wall murals. FACADE STORIES is about the special passion of people who cared about these facades. It should be read by their counterparts-architects and planners, storekeepers and businessmen-people, preservationists and laymen-who are investing time and money on Main Street. FACADE STORIES is about the technical resources one needs to fix up a storefront. City officials can discover effective incentives to encourage facade renovation; merchants can benefit from design guidance on facade options; artisans can learn how their craft can upgrade signs on Main Street; bankers can see where facade changes have improved sales. FACADE STORIES is about the future of preservation. Going beyond descriptions of what facades were saved, this book also stresses the why. It reveals the claims which buildings must make on people's affection, if we are going to design buildings that will inspire a broad constituency to save them in the future. It should be compulsory reading for planning commissions, review boards and the architects and designers who seek their approval.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This is the story of a garden, Bellevue House, in Newport, Rhode Island, that encompasses history and memory, inspiration and motivation. Author Ronald Lee Fleming has written an entirely new kind of garden book; an empowerment guide for the gardener who wants to invest their own sense of place and family history into the garden structure. Rather than a homage to contemporary gardens, a survey of historic gardens, or a "how-to" manual, Fleming makes a larger argument for classicism as a living language in contemporary times. Through a careful mix of rich visual imagery and memoir, the author brings to life the garden he has created and explains his many sources, including deeply-held personal memories. AUTHOR: Ronald Lee Fleming is an author and the founder and president of The Townscape Institute, a non-profit public interest planning organisation based in Cambridge, MA. SELLING POINTS: . A deeply personal memoir narrated through the lens of a narrative garden. . Shows how landscape can resonate with our past experiences and evoke memories of other garden places familiar to the seasoned garden visitor. 245 colour illustrations This is the story of a garden, Bellevue House, in Newport, Rhode Island, that speaks to us about history and memory, inspiration and motivation. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
