A Preliminary Look at the Schoolhouse: The Philadelphia Story, 1870-1920

Cutler, William W., III

Urban Education, 8, 4, 381-400, Jan 74

Examines old schools and new, inside and outside, in the historic city center and its developing suburban rings, for the "respectable classes" and the "struggling masses," as a municipal investment and as a design problem, in order to understand the material culture of vital urban places, not as facade, but as environment.
