Renowned for his extensive work in architectural history and historic preservation as an educator, scholar, activist, and public lecturer, Richard Longstreth is one of the most important architectural preservationists of the recent past. Looking beyond the Icons offers a generous and diverse selection of his writings over the past twentyfive years. The author explores a variety of topics related to midcentury (ca. 194570) preservation efforts, including practical, intellectual, and psychological dilemmas associated with preserving the recent past, preservationrelated deficiencies in the urban planning process, and preservation of specific types of buildings. This collection offers a new understanding of the richness and variety of midtwentiethcentury U.S. architecture, landscape, and urbanism, and provides a detailed analysis of both the imperatives for and the challenges involved in preserving this legacy.
