The Inland architect and news record
The Inland Architect and News Record was a Chicago trade periodical published by the Inland Publishing Company in 1887 for architects and builders, here showing plate photographs of buildings. The four pictures show a Chicago residence with a columned Classical Revival porch, a brick townhouse with a bay and iron fence, the Dennebrunt Building's tall grid of windows, and the Southern Pacific railroad station in San Francisco with its clock tower and arcade. A designer could draw on the strong symmetry, rhythmic window grids, and crisp black-and-white photographic tone.
