Résumé:
Des bureaux de poste de campagne aux hôtels des postes monumentaux, des centres de tri urbains aux gigantesques plateformes industrielles contemporaines, La Poste possède un patrimoine architectural remarquable tant par sa variété que pas sa qualité, mis en lumière dans cet ouvrage de référence. L'architecture postale s'inscrit ainsi dans l'histoire durable qu'entretiennent les Français avec La Poste. Depuis les années 1880, adoptant les styles architecturaux qui se sont succédés tout au long du XXe siècle., La Poste a construit un parc immobilier dont la richesse est avant tout celle d'une exceptionnelle diversité au service des métiers qui la constituent. Une histoire qui reflète les mutations techniques, esthétiques, économiques et sociales de la France du XIXe au XXIe siècle. Une histoire émaillée de figures renommées de l'architecture de François-Charles le Cœur à Claude Prouvé, en passant par Léon Azéma, Joseph Bukiet ou encore Louis Arretche. D'autres grands noms s'invitent également ici, Jean-Christophe Ballot, Yann Charbonnier et Stéphane Couturier, trois grands photographes d'art contemporain, nous offrent leur regard sur des bâtiments emblématiques de l'architecture postale.

Résumé:
In 1952 the New Yorker published a three-part essay by A. J. Liebling in which he dubbed Chicago the “Second City.” From garbage collection to the skyline, nothing escaped Liebling’s withering gaze. Among the outraged responses from Chicago residents was one that Liebling described as the apotheosis of such criticism: a postcard that read, simply, “You were never in(...)

Résumé:
In 1952 the New Yorker published a three-part essay by A. J. Liebling in which he dubbed Chicago the “Second City.” From garbage collection to the skyline, nothing escaped Liebling’s withering gaze. Among the outraged responses from Chicago residents was one that Liebling described as the apotheosis of such criticism: a postcard that read, simply, “You were never in Chicago.” Neil Steinberg has lived in and around Chicago for more than three decades — ever since he left his hometown of Berea, Ohio, to attend Northwestern — yet he remains fascinated by the dynamics captured in Liebling’s anecdote. In You Were Never in Chicago Steinberg weaves the story of his own coming-of-age as a young outsider who made his way into the inner circles and upper levels of Chicago journalism with a nuanced portrait of the city that would surprise even lifelong residents. Steinberg takes readers through Chicago’s vanishing industrial past and explores the city from the quaint skybridge between the towers of the Wrigley Building, to the depths of the vast Deep Tunnel system below the streets. He deftly explains the city’s complex web of political favoritism and carefully profiles the characters he meets along the way, from greats of jazz and journalism to small-business owners just getting by. Throughout, Steinberg never loses the curiosity and close observation of an outsider, while thoughtfully considering how this perspective has shaped the city, and what it really means to belong.

Today, with reduced budgets, many architects have turned in a more focused way to creating works that may be in diminutive in their dimensions, but which are definitely big when it comes to trendsetting ideas. Whether in Japanese cities, where large sites are hard to come by, or at the frontier between art and architecture, small buildings present many advantages, and push their designers to do more with less.
