Gates of Harvard Yard

ISBN: 9781616894641 (PB+ - E)

Offering the complete, never-before-told story of the twenty-five gates that form portals to Harvard Yard, this beautiful gift book recounts the aesthetic vision for America's preeminent university, developed by renowned architecture rm McKim, Mead & White. The book discusses the architectural intentions of the gates, as well as the human drama behind their fruition---tales of wealth, power, and institutional and personal ambition. Illustrated with previously unpublished sketches by Roger Erickson, architect and landscape architect; stunning color photographs of each gate by Ralph Lieberman; and a beautiful hand-drawn three-dimensional aerial map of HarvardYard that denotes the location of each gate by RISD graduate student Christopher Beck.
