What reading level is Family Business And the San Francisco Community Oral History Transcript An book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Finally, the architect selected for that was Skidmore, Owings, and Merrill, who were really just starting their activities in San Francisco. They had just opened a small office here and they got the contract. I must say they didn't do too good a job either, because later on a lot of the things they did had to be redone. They put large glass windows facing the south, which made it very cold in the winter and very hot on sunny days.
That was a period of architects using a lot of glass. They built... these buildings in New York on Park Avenue, and it was the glass age. It didn't work out well for hospitals. It was an impractical idea. But other than that, I think, they did a pretty good job. It was one of the first new hospitals built in San Francisco for many, many years, so they learned a little by experience, and others learned.
But I was involved in that as a member of the building committee and then I was quite actively involved in the construc tion of the hospital.
Int: In what way?
MF: Well, working with the architect and with various consultants and with the doctors.
