Bøger af David S Traub

"Philadelphia: City of Homes is a collection of intriguing photographs of various types of Philadelphia homes taken and assembled with descriptive captions by longtime local architect David S. Traub. Compared to other large urban centers such as New York and Chicago, Philadelphia has relatively few apartment buildings. The single house or house-like structure still prevails in the city's architectural profile.
