- Summary:
- A curated list of more than 250 must-see destinations organized geographically from Maine to Florida.

The book includes all the additional information needed to find and visit each building.0Its cool and functional design makes this book a coveted Modernist-style object in itself.0Including icons from The Met Breuer to the fabulous beach houses of Fire Island, private homes in Connecticut, Manhattan skyscrapers, and the Tropical Modern residences of Sarasota, Florida, it is a must-have guide to one of the most fertile and lesser-known regions for the development of Mid-Century Modern architecture.
