The Metropolis of Tomorrow by Hugh Ferriss

In 1916, New York City enacted zoning laws that mandated the building of “set-back” structures so that light and air would be more freely admitted into the streets below. 

In The Metropolis of Tomorrow, 49 stunning illustrations depict towering structures, personal space, wide avenues, and rooftop parks — features that now exist in many innovative, densely populated urban landscapes. Ferriss uses metaphors from nature that lend his text a poetic quality. With its eloquent commentary and powerful renderings, The Metropolis of Tomorrow is an indispensable resource for students, architects, and anyone else with an interest in American architecture.

The Hatch Reading Room is here for you to de-stress, work on projects, take a break to read, and enjoy a quiet view of campus. 4th floor of Marvin Hall, 9 am - 5 pm Monday - Friday. 📚
