Product Description
The Castro Theatre, the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Headquarters, 450 Sutter Medico-Dental Building – these masterpieces of San Francisco’s Art Deco heritage are the work of one man: Timothy Pflueger. While his contemporaries looked to beaux arts traditions to rebuild the city, he brought exotic Mayan, Asian, and Egyptian forms to buildings ranging from simple cocktail lounges to the city’s first skyscrapers. Pflueger was one of the city’s most prolific architects during his 40-year career. Therese Poletti tells the fascinating story of Pflueger’s life and work in "Art Deco San Francisco". In lively detail, she relates how Pflueger built extravagant compositions in metal, concrete, and glass.
