Sinopsis

The skyscraper is the building type that dominates our cities, absorbs vast amounts of capital in design, construction and maintenance and houses large numbers of people in offices and apartments. Ada Louise Huxtable offers here an energetic defence of cities and a consideration of the skyscaper as art, as business and as the product of politics and speculation.
