Avery Library’s Drawings & Archives department collects drawings, photographs, and architectural records documenting architecture and design practices. Our collections focus largely on American and New York City architecture of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
The collection documents four projects: Amsterdam Houses additions (New York, N.Y.) Curries Woods Restoration (Jersey City, N.J.); Washington Street Urban Renewal (New York, N.Y.) and Wyckoff Houses (Brooklyn, N.Y.).
