Overview

Imagine a group of settlers arriving in an undeveloped location. First come shelters in which to live and then structures in which to work and shop. There are buildings for worship and education. As the community grows government buildings are required. With prosperity comes places in which to spend leisure time. And each step along the way builds a story unique to Delaware, a story told in 100 buildings...This book looks at the stories told by 100 pieces of the built world that have shaped Delaware from her beginnings. Places and spaces could be famous for their architecture or distinguished by the people associated with them. Some stand out for their engineering. Others are famous just for being famous. All have contributed to the tapestry of the great Delaware story.Almost all of the selections within are open to the public, or at least visible from public spaces. So, if you haven't seen these landmarks in person, fire up your GPS and get out and see the history of the First State standing in plain sight on Delaware streets
