Description: Landmark Architecture of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. 1967 hardcover. The book contains a building history of the area, a delineation of a series of “preservation districts”, where the structures together form neighborhoods of distinction and delight (these include Manchester, parts of South Side, Lawrenceville, Thornburg, Shadyside, and Elizabeth Borough), and a register of buildings that are considered architecturally or historically important. More than a list, this compendium records the structures with descriptions that are sharp, pungent, at times beautiful, at times wry, but which always reflect the character of the buildings themselves. Illustrated with hundreds of photographs, the volume also contains a series of indexes to architects and building types useful for information and for touring. There is also an extensive bibliography. A solid, functional copy. Interior is clean and tight, no writing or tears. Small area of glue residue on the front pastedown where a label was removed. Light tanning to the pages. Light edgewear to the boards. Heavier edgewear to the dj, which has a few small tears. 1967, Pittsburgh History & Landmarks Fnd.
