The Merritt Parkway

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This book traces the history of Connecticut`s Merritt Parkway from the proposals for its construction and design in the early 1920s to its triumphant completion in 1940. Filled with vintage and recent photographs, it is not only a picturesque tour of a renowned landmark (the largest Art Deco design in the world), but is also an appraisal of a major contribution to the built environment-one recently placed on the National Register of Historic Places. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
