Description: Architecture of the Panama Canal Zone : Civic and Residential Structures & Townsites, Hardcover by Crouch, Edith, ISBN 0764346113, ISBN-13 9780764346118, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Although the canal and the associated locks are the dominate feature in the Panama Canal Zone, the architecture of the surrounding buildings is equally telling of America’s presence in Panama from the 1900s to 1960s. In this book, Edith Read Barkowitz Crouch, who grew up in the Panama Canal Zone, uses over 1000 pictures to explore the area. She considers both civic architectural achievements, including the Beaux Arts-style Administration Building and Prado, Gorgas Hospital, Balboa School, the YMCA, Union Church, and the Panama Railway Stations, and residential structures. American architects that play a particularly big role include James Renwick, Jr., Austin W. Lord, Bertram Goodhue, Edwards Durell Stone and many others. This book will be equally appealing to architecture and history lovers. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR ()
