This volume traces the history of a number of projects--bridges, dams, roads, tunnels, railroad cuts--formally designated as significant landmarks by the American Society of Civil Engineers. Schodek looks at architecture not only as an integral part of human expression and social statement, but also shows why these constructions are admirable. Landmarks covered include: the Greek Revival temples of the Fairmount waterworks on the Schuykill in Philadelphia (1799-1822); the Brooklyn Bridge (1869-83); the Buffalo Bill Dam (1910) near Cody, Wyoming; the Holland tunnel (1920-27); the Mason-Dixon line; the Tennessee Valley Authority; and the floodlit night runways at Cleveland Airport (1925). ISBN 0-262-19256-X: $50.00 (For use only in the library).

"This book, for the first time, calls adequate attention to the physical plant over which railroads operate - the roadbeds, tracks, bridges, and tunnels, subjects that are often taken for granted. It is a book no rail fan or student of engineering can be without."--BOOK JACKET.
