Immigrant Architect: Rafael Guastavino and the American Dream
by Berta de Miguel (Author), Kent Diebolt (Author), Virginia Lorente (Author / Illustrator)
Booktalk: The Spanish architects Rafael Guastavino Sr. and his son, Rafael Guastavino Jr., designed more than one thousand iconic spaces across New York City and the United States. The book is written in the voice of the son, who was eight years old in 1881 when he immigrated to America with his father. An introduction to architectural concepts and a timely reminder of immigrant contributions to America, the book includes four route maps for visiting Guastavino-designed spaces in New York City: uptown, midtown, downtown, and Prospect Park.
