There are chapters on Victorian architecture - the first in the procession of building styles; on Edwardian architecture - which characterized the mining town of the early twentieth century that was fast growing into a little New York in the mid-1930s, with stunted skyscrapers to emulate their Manhattan paradigms. Further sections deal with the Modern Movement, Township Johannesburg, and Johannesburg's architecture after the Second World War.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"I H Pentz Booksellers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46587380105378,"sku":null,"price":1000.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0364\/4047\/3732\/files\/md31097731000.jpg?v=1770993868","url":"https:\/\/pentzbooks.co.za\/products\/johannesburg-style-architecture-society-1880s-1960s-by-chipkin-clive","provider":"I H Pentz Booksellers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
