By Jane Ware

On intimate sojourns through the streets of its major cities, Jane Ware demonstrates that Ohio is a place with architecture that matters. Using scenes and stories of the designers and builders themselves, Ms. Ware gives the reader a record of the collusions of money, art, ambition, and personality that created an exceptional architecture. Indeed, it was one that was once on the cutting edge. Building Ohio was the first new book on Ohio buildings in over a quarter of a century, and its first architectural guide ever. It demonstrates how ambitious, how rich, how smart, and how much fun Ohio cities once were. and it was written, says the author, “with the knowledge that they can be, and the hope they will be again.” This accomplished and entertaining guidebook shows Ohio at its inarguable best.
