Collections : [Avery Drawings & Archives]

Slides taken by Camilo Vergara in the company of Lenny Hicks documenting urban decay in Bronx, New York for Vegara's project The New American Ghetto.

The bulk of the collection (292 drawings) features original drawings for the 1889 publication of Carl Pfeiffer's designs for American mansions and cottages. These are a mix of ink on paper, linen and tracing paper, as well as pencil on trace. Also included are a set of 7 drawings for a private home on Madison at 25th Street -- these are in ink and watercolor on paper, with a great level of detail -- and an illuminated monogram in a fantasy landscape.

The collection consists of Caroline King's research files on Henry Dudley. King was researching Henry Dudley for a potential doctoral dissertation on Dudley's practice in New York City between the years 1851 and 1894. The collection primarily contains photocopies of articles and other resources King collected. The collection also includes slides of some of Dudley's extant buildings, likely taken by King in the 1980s.

5 panels with reproductions of architectural drawings for Casa Baldwin, an unbuilt residential project by Luis Barragan and Raul Ferrara for Benjamin Baldwin in Sarasota, Florida. Includes site plans, floor plans, elevations, and sections.

The collection is made up of correspondence, photographs, ephemera, Potter's musical compositions, architectural sketches and some photographs of projects. The projects include residences as well as St. John's Cathedral in Jacksonville, Florida and The First Dutch Reform Church in Schenectady, NY.

Drawings show plans, elevations, sections, and details for the design of the Casino Theatre and related spaces.

The Charles Dudley Arnold photographic collection is composed of three parts. The first is a collection of 47 platinum print photographs showing views of the Columbian Exposition. These photos were formerly mounted in an album from the library of McKim, Mead & White, architects. This album was v.10 of a 14 volume "collection of albums of photographs, illustrations from periodicals, clippings and sketches depicting works of the firm," now in Avery Classics at AA 712 M195.
