The PPS/AIAri Guide to Providence Architecture is the first guidebook to unlock the secrets of the buildings and the places that make this New England city a great place to live, work and visit. From Benefit Street, the Mile of History, to the statue of the Independent Man, follow Mack Woodward on 12 walking and driving tours of the Renaissance city.
Written by architectural historian Wm McKenzie Woodward and photographed by renowned architectural photographer Warren Jagger, this 320-page guide features 12 different self-guided tours of the city and includes maps, photographs and historical commentary as well as descriptions of more than 300 buildings and streetscapes.
”Mack Woodward succeeded the late [architectural historian] William Jordy in the vitally important role of person-who-knows-more-about-Providence-architecture-than-anyone. He shares his knowledge with resident and architectural tourist alike and makes Providence“s treasures readable and accessible. It answers questions about the buildings we have passed and admired, but about which we knew little. In learning what makes our city unique, recalling what we have lost, and imagining what we might lose, the real value of the Guide is that it reminds us of our responsibility to the future of Providence's past.“
– From the foreword by William Morgan
