An Overview of the City Beautiful Movement - An architectural manifestation of the social response to failing urban life.
Contains details regarding the origin, key characteristics, architects and major cities involved, along with the following case studies :
- Mcmillan Plan
- Plan of Chicago and
- City of Minneapolis.
The first large-scale elaboration of the City Beautiful occurred in Chicago at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition. The planning of the exposition was directed by architect Daniel Burnham, who hired architects from the eastern United States, as well as the sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, to build large-scale Beaux-Arts monuments that were vaguely classical with uniform cornice height. The exposition displayed a model city of grand scale, known as the "White City", with modern transport systems and no poverty visible. The exposition is credited with resulting in the large-scale adoption of monumentalism for American architecture for the next 15 years. Richmond, Virginia's Monument Avenue is one expression of this initial phase.
This presentation explains Sir Louis Kahn's design philosophy and some of his famous projects like The Kimbell Art Museum, IIM Ahmedabad and The Salt Institute

Walt Disney Concert Hall and Legislation Revitalizes Downtown LAStuart Hansen
Based in Los Angeles, California, Shelter Asset Management (SAM) is a real estate advisory and consultancy firm founded in 2008. Its expertise involves devising and implementing the construction of single-family, subdivision, multi-family, and mixed used buildings. Among its projects, the firm has produced concept developments for mid-rise and high-rise buildings in the reinvigorated downtown LA area.
Once neglected downtown LA has been revitalized since the opening of the Walt Disney Concert Hall. When the venue opened its doors in 2003, it quickly became a downtown landmark. The shavings of silver waves that form the building sits next to a leafy parking lot, which has come to be a meeting point or a place where office workers congregate for lunch or a quick break. Meanwhile, the ground-level theater hosts groundbreaking performances.
