Interesting, innovative, beautiful and often unusual concrete buildings are featured in this unique DVD compilation of some 1100 photos from PCA's historic photo archive. The buildings, many of them "firsts" of their kind, include residential, religious, commercial, and industrial structures in the U.S. and Canada, some of them designed by famous architects such as Eero Saarinen, Frank Lloyd Wright, Minoru Yamasaki, I.M. Pei, and others. This historical collection covers the period from about 1850 to 1999. Buildings are often shown in multiple views, and include the 1964 New York World's Fair, Expo '67, and nearly 200 images of buildings in Chicago.
