Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright may be the Midwest’s (and the nation’s) most famous architects, but the region has always been fertile ground for both master and amateur builders. Through an array of photographs and short essays, Midwest Architecture Journeys takes readers on a trip to visit some of the region’s most inventive buildings by architects such as:

Bertrand Goldberg, Bruce Goff, David Haid, Earl Young, and Lillian Leenhouts. It also includes stops at less obvious but equally daring sites, such as: The Cahokia mounds Buffalo grain silos Flint parking lots Dayton flea markets Fermilab New Glarus restaurants Minneapolis underground buildings Bronzeville churches Pruitt-Igoe public housing Cleveland’s abandoned warehouses
