Philadelphia: City of Homes is an affectionate homage to Philadelphia by architect David Traub, which reveals his deep and intimate knowledge of the city's streets and buildings. In this, his third book about Philadelphia's architecture and streetscapes, the author takes readers on a wide-ranging and eclectic tour of the city's homes. Throughout, the author urges us to consider Philadelphia as a City of Homes -- a place shaped by Philadelphians' desire to live in their own home, whether it's a compact "baby doll house," an architectural masterpiece, or something in between.
