Chatham Village: Pittsburgh's Garden City (Regional)
A University of Pittsburgh Press study of Chatham Village, the 1932 planned community that remains a National Historic Landmark. Angelique Bamberg places the development in the context of the Garden City movement, Stein and Wright, and the history of American housing reform. The book is regional in the best sense: locally specific and quietly polemical. The paperback is sturdy, with the plain cover and local photographs typical of a university press regional title. Ideal reader: the Pittsburgher who has driven past the village without knowing why it matters, or the urbanist looking for an American precedent that does not involve towers in a park.
