Terra-Cotta Skyline : New York's Architectural Ornament by Susan Tunick, Peter Mauss (Photographer) "This volume, which is firmly on the side of preservation rather than demolition, reveals and celebrates the splendor of those architectural treasures. Offering a fascinating history, the book chronicles the development of terra-cotta ornamentation from the artisans of the late 19th century, to the revival the medium is enjoying today both in restoration projects and in new construction, to the efforts of preservationists to save this threatened aspect of architectural history. Also included is a detailed listing of 200 significant terra-cotta buildings in New York City." - Art & Arch review Check out the Architectural Terra Cotta made by Superior Clay Corp.
