THE
AMERICAN ARCHITECT
AND BUILDING NEWS.

An Illustrated Weekly Journal of Architecture and the Building Trades

Each number is accompanied by six fine quarto illustrations, while illustrative cuts are liberally used in the text.  Although the paper addresses itself primarily to architects and builders, by its discussions upon matters of interest common to those engaged in building pursuits, it is the object of the editors to make it acceptable and necessary to that large portion of the educated classes who are interested in and appreciate the importance of good architectural surroundings, to civil and sanitary engineers, draughtsmen, antiquaries, craftsmen of all kinds, and all intelligent readers.
