Built in Boston
A great book outlining the architectural development of Boston over the last couple hundred years. The pall cast by the last twenty years of relatively lame developments(this was pre-Simmons, Stata, Office Da, etc.) is quite evident - finishing off with a sketch of that horrendous Machado/Silvetti dorm in Allston that, amazingly, even failed to live up to the rendering.
