What reading level is City Planning Housing volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
. . Chicago (Root). (See p. 366) 5 Cf. "Adolf Loos, " edited by H. Kulka, Vienna, 1931, p. 378, fig. 156.
TWENTY-SIXTH CHAPTER 365 precisely one of those despised "men who thought in terms of established architectural forms. " It was the much slandered business man of the nineties and, with him, the shrewd Burnham who partly, but only partly, succeeded in pulling Root away from his academic leanings. Harriet Monroe's biography of Root tells us very honestly how the clients "rejected Root's sket...ches as too ornate. During Root's absence of a fortnight, Mr. Burn- ham ordered from one of the draftsmen a design of a straight up-and-down, uncompromising, unornamented facade. When Root returned, he was indignant at first over this project of a brick box. Gradually, however, he threw himself into the spirit of the thing, and one day told Mr. Aldis (the uncompromising businessman) that 'the heavy sloping lines of an Egyptian pylon had gotten into his mind as the basis of this design, and that he thought he would throw the whole thing up without a single ornament.
