Skyscraper Gothic: Medieval Style and Modernist Buildings

by Lisa Reilly (Editor), Lisa Reilly (Editor), Kevin D. Murphy (Editor)

Synopsis

Of all building types, the skyscraper strikes observers as the most modern, in terms not only of height but also boldness, scale, ingenuity, and daring. Skyscraper Gothic brings together renowned scholars to address the medievalist skyscraper, from the flying buttresses to the dizzying spires, and from the Chicago Tribune Tower to the Woolworth Building in Manhattan.
