The second volume in our Modern Landscapes series examines the evolution of Pittsburghs first modern garden plaza. Completed in 1955 from a design by the acclaimed landscape design firm Simonds Simonds and architects Mitchell Ritchey; Mellon Square functioned as an urban oasis that provided downtown office workers a much-needed respite from the citys infamous smoke pollution. Now; more than six decades later; Mellon Square is undergoing a major restoration by Patricia ODonnell of Heritage Landscapes that aims to restore this urban garden and help revitalize downtown Pittsburgh. Featuring new photography and archival material; Mellon Square is the only book to showcase the development of this iconic urban landscape.

Informative also entertainingBy M.DSuch a good book; the only problem was that the pages were coming out of the spine. They were not loose or falling off but I think the glue was wearing off. Aside from that; no problems.
