Favorite American Architecture as voted on by the­ The American Institute of Architects

My choices on the vote thing:

  1. The Chrysler Building
  2. The Flatiron building
  3. The Boston Public Library
  4. The Robie House
  5. Fenway Park

Some notes on my choices:

  • I was crazy biased on two of my choices. The Library is honestly emblematic of my youth (we used to hang out in front) and Fenway is Fenway… What can I do? I’m a Bostonian at heart.
  • Really? I would have choses Taliesin or Fallingwater, but I’ve never actually seen either with my own eyes and I feel like architecture is best appreciated in person.
  • The Chrystler Building is my favorite building in New York. Hands down. I don’t know how many times I’ve seen it and it still fascinates me. Maybe if I lived there I’d tire of it, but failing that, call me a fan.

Verey cool presentation. Check it out and dig around if you’ve got a minute…
