Private enterprises have long used architecture to capture attention, attract customers, and project an image. This fun course examines the architecture and history of buildings we pass every day -- including theatres, hotels, banks, factories, and shops. We'll see how designs have changed to reflect changing habits, and how lavish ornamentation has given way to sleek storefronts and towers. You'll learn more about some of the city's landmarks and discover little-known treasures. One class will be a walking tour.
