An "easy-read" history of a section of Orange County in Southern California, "The Reader" is a combination children's history, an illustrated history & a preservationist document. Although its focus is on a specific local area, it presents a "microcosm" of life styles that have been present in the ever-increasing move toward urbanization. THE CALIFORNIANS MAGAZINE based an article on the changes & impact of various cultures, Native Americans through Anglo, on this work. Simple one-page chapters & 140 pictures plus captions, along with maps & charts, combine to present a basic picture for children & adults alike. "It is absolutely great! It communicates to kids, to teachers, everyone."--Ellen Lee, author. Available from publisher. Write to "Old" El Toro Press, 10950 S. Valley View Ave., Whittier, CA 90604.
Now available as revised edition: The successful title on integrated ecological landscape planning Infrastructure, as we know it, no longer belongs in the exclusive realm of engineers and transportation planners. In the context of rapidly changing cities and towns, infrastructure is experiencing a paradigm shift where multiple-use programming and the integration of latent ecologies is a primary consideration. Defining contemporary infrastructure requires a multi-disciplinary team of landscape architects, engineers, architects and planners to fully realize the benefits to our cultural and natural systems. This book examines the potential of landscape as infrastructure via essays by notable authors and supporting case studies by SWA landscape architects and urban designers, among them the technologically innovative roof domes for Renzo Piano’s California Academy of Science in San Francisco, the restoration of the Buffalo Bayou in Houston, and several master plans for ecological corridors in China and Korea. Other projects develop smart re-use concepts for railroad tracks that no longer serve their original purpose, such as Kyung-Chun railway in Seoul or Katy Trail in Dallas. All case studies are described extensively with technical diagrams and plans for repositioning infrastructure as a viable medium for addressing issues of ecology, transit, urbanism, performance, and habitat.
