Rutgers Then and Now: Two Centuries of Campus Development

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"Rutgers Then and Now brings to life the vibrant trajectory of the Rutgers campus from its origin in the single building of Old Queens to the sweeping campus along the Raritan River today. Through historic and contemporary photographs, original architectural drawings and renderings, and plans and maps of the campus and its urban setting, it traces the evolution of a veritable museum of architecture and landscape. With deft and literate commentary, the distinguished authors of this volume highlight the variety of forces-architectural, social, and economic-that shaped today's Rutgers campus."- Michael Farewell, FAIA, Principal, Farewell Architects, LLC
"I am fascinated by the story that Jim Hughes, David Listokin, and Dick Edwards have told in this book through words and pictures, focusing on the birthplace of our remarkable university. I take immense pride in their scholarship and their mighty achievement in capturing the sweep of Rutgers's evolution over more than two and a half centuries."- Jonathan Scott Holloway, President of Rutgers University, from the foreword
