City Icons

by Mark Burry

Part of a series that aims to place buildings within their historical context, this text considers the Expiatory Church of the Sagrada Familia, Grand Central Terminal and the Sydney Opera House. It includes specially produced technical drawings that explain how the buildings were detailed and put together. Examined together, the buildings provide insights into the role of civic architecture.
