About this product

Product Information

Few nineteenth-century architects ventured far from the pattern-book styles of their time. One architect not constrained by tradition was the Irish-born American Henry Howard, who started as a carpenter and stair builder in 1836 New York and arrived in New Orleans the following year, soon establishing a reputation for distinctive designs that blended American and European trends. His career gained momentum as he went on to design an extraordinarily diverse portfolio of magnificent residences and civic buildings in New Orleans and its environs. Henry Howard is a lavishly produced clothbound volume featuring hundreds of contemporary and archival images and a comprehensive analysis of his built work. The first book to examine the forty-year career of the architect, Henry Howard establishes a clear lineage of his aesthetic contributions to the urban and rural environments of the South. Princeton Architectural Press co-publishes Henry Howard with The Historic New Orleans Collection: a museum, research center, and publisher dedicated to the study and preservation of the history and culture of New Orleans and the Gulf South.

  • Great Book on a Lesser Known Louisiana Architect

    Fabulous book for any one who loves Louisiana (Especially New Orleans) 19th Century Architecture. The photos are great! This book needs to be in everyone's Library. Mr. Brantley has done some excellent research that proves some (once unknown structures) can now be attributed to Henry Howard. This nicely fills the gap between the more widely know Architects of New Orleans, James Gallier Sr. and James Gallier Jr. After Spending 6 years in the Lower Pontalba Apartment building in Jackson Square (Completed by Henry Howard) I have come to really appreciate his contribution to our State.
