Book info: Cities and Buildings: Skyscrapers, Skid Rows, and Suburbs (Creating the North American Landscape) (Paperback, 328 pages) – Johns Hopkins University Press, 1994. Language: English.

In this text, Ford offers an account of the relationship between urban architecture - especially vernacular architecture - and the spatial arrangement and development of cities in North America. From office towers in the central business district to commercial strips in the edge city, Ford shows how changes in the built environment parallel changes in urban economies and human culture. Focusing on ordinary structures rather than famous landmarks, the book aims to provide a guide to understanding the changing character of any urban landscape.
