Architecture around the Corner

By Carol Van Why, Library Co-Chair

​Are you new to the SAP/Grove area or have you lived here for decades?  It doesn’t take more than a drive or two around the neighborhood to appreciate its varied architectural styles.

​Three books on the Library’s upper level ARCHITECTURE shelf reveal just how architecturally important our locale is.  (Book authors are in parentheses.)  
Books about Elizabeth Close (Hession), Edwin Lundie (O’Toole), and Ralph Rapson (Hession) depict dozens of homes within easy strolls/drives of Coffman, designed by these individuals. ​

Nearby on the 1666 AUTHORS shelf find a book by architect Joe Michels featuring his own work.  Maybe you’ll discover which Coffman residents lived in these special places.  Like the homes they illustrate, the books themselves are treasures.  Sign them out; enjoy them; return them for others to enjoy.  ​
