The Grouping of Public Buildings

Originally published in 1916, Ford's proposal for the grouping of public buildings in Connecticut provides a fascinating glimpse into the early history of American urban planning. The book outlines a plan for the development of a cohesive, aesthetically pleasing group of public buildings centered around the State Capitol in Hartford. While Ford's specific proposal may never have been fully implemented, The Grouping of Public Buildings remains an important historic document, shedding light on the evolution of American architecture and design.
