His design for the Jewish Community Center on the outskirts of Trenton, New Jersey, which he began in 1954, epitomizes the essential forms for which Kahn is known. While simple in scale and program, this building shows Kahn's work at its most elemental. The Jewish Community Center is also important in its reflection of two larger social issues of the time. The suburbanization of America coincided with the JCC's move from downtown Trenton to a nearby suburban community. And the Jewish community was in transition after WWII. This is the next title in our Casa Malaparte series. Like the other titles in the series, this book offers an in-depth analysis of a single structure through original documents, drawings, and critical examination of the design process.Hide synopsis

His design for the Jewish Community Center on the outskirts of Trenton, New Jersey, which he began in 1954, epitomizes the essential forms for which Kahn is known. The Trenton Bath House, the best-known component of the project, embodies a simple scale and program that shows Kahn's work at its most elemental. This book explores not only the formal aspects of the building, but also the political history of its construction, the social issues of suburbanization and the post-World War II Jewish community and Kahn's peronal relationship with his Jewish heritage, " from the cover copy.
