1880-2000s: Two Lectures by Professor Jeffrey Karl Ochsner
Co-sponsored by The Seattle Public Library
The two lectures will provide an overview of 130 years of Seattle's architectural history, beginning about 1880 (when the city's population was only 3500 people) and extending to the present day. The lectures will address broad architectural and urban developments, a range of building types and stylistic directions, and the major architects who shaped the architecture of the city and region. Each lecture will run about 90 minutes allowing time at the end for questions.
Jeffrey Karl Ochsner FAIA has taught at the University of Washington for over 22 years. He is the author, co-author or editor of three books and numerous articles addressing Seattle's architectural and urban history.
Professor Ochsner's books will be available for sale from Elliott Bay Book Company and he will stay after his lecture to autograph them.
