William Lescaze Reconsidered, William H. Jordy
William Lescaze Reconsidered, William H. Jordy
The Courier
This article gives a critical look to William Lescaze's architectural career. While he had early success, his later career seems to pale in comparison. Regardless, the author praises Lescaze for remaining eclectic and not adhering too strongly to the orthodoxy of modernism.
William Lescaze And Cbs: A Case Study In Corporate Modernism, Dennis P. Doordan
William Lescaze And Cbs: A Case Study In Corporate Modernism, Dennis P. Doordan
The Courier
During the period 1934 to 1949, the Columbia Broadcasting System provided William Lescaze with a series of commissions that, considered together, constitute one of the largest, most varied, and most important bodies of work in his entire career.
Lescaze was responsible for the design of a major new broadcasting facility, the interior design of studio and office spaces, the design of a variety of studio furnishings such as microphones and clocks, the design of a mobile broadcasting vehicle, and the graphic design for CBS facilities across the country. A careful review of the material indicates that Lescaze made a major …
Mcmillan House, Susie Van Kirk
Mcmillan House, Susie Van Kirk
Susie Van Kirk Papers
The architectural integrity of the McMillan House has been negatively impacted by several significant alterations. These include the addition in the northeast corner, the front door, the louvered window in the upstairs of the south wall, and the window shutters. Other alterations have occurred, but they are not particularly intrusive and could remain without impinging upon the building's architecture.

The "Modern" Skyscraper, 1931, Carol Willis
The "Modern" Skyscraper, 1931, Carol Willis
The Courier
This article details the history of The Philadelphia Saving Fund Society (PSFS) building, constructed through the partnership of William Lescaze and George Howe in 1932. The author argues the building to this day remains "modern", displaying complexity and a varitey of color and materials. The building is also, the author says, the first skyscraper designed in the International Style. The author also examines the PSFS in the context of other tall buildings of the period, usually described as belonging to the Art Deco style.

The William Lescaze Symposium Panel Discussion, Dennis P. Doordan
The Courier
This article is an adapted form of a panel discussion that took place discussing the architect William Lescaze.

School of Architecture - All Scholarship
This publication is the result of one semester's design work from the Syracuse University Florence Program. Our purpose in compiling this material is two-fold; in presenting this work as an example of the design activity that occurs at the Florence Center, we intend to reveal the unique opportunity that this Program offers to students from the United States. In addition, we are using this vehicle to address the intellectual context within which our students worked during their design process. Giuseppe Vallifuoco and Sergio Petrini (Roman architects and our Visiting Critics) presented a specific bias toward the production of architecture, and …

The Moore House, Susie Van Kirk

The Fleckenstein-Newton House, Susie Van Kirk
The Fleckenstein-Newton House, Susie Van Kirk
Susie Van Kirk Papers
The Fleckenstein-Newton House and Barn are recommended for Historic designation for their historic qualities and potential for restoration. Although the house fails to fit any particular architectural style and has been somewhat altered, it, nonetheless, exhibits some interesting decorative features and, very importantly, has a decided historic quality which complements other houses on the block. The barn, quite handsome and very important to the character of the area, also deserves Historic designation.
