This review is from: Making of the Morgan from Charles McKim to Renzo Piano (Hardcover)
In 1906 in New York City one Pierpont Morgan built a private library intended to rival Europe's finest art collections: it became a public library in 1944 and in 2006 saw a major expansion and renovation designed by the Renzo Piano Building Workshop. Its history is documented in "The Making of the Morgan from Charles McKim to Renzo Piano", a survey of Pierpont Morgan's visionary process and how the library's collection changed from a private to a public institution. Collections strong in both library science and architecture and the arts will find "The Making of the Morgan from Charles McKim to Renzo Piano" to be a powerful pick, packed with color photos throughout.
