Description

THE GREATEST BUILDINGS IN HISTORY—THAT WERE NEVER BUILT.

What if Frank Lloyd Wright's mile-high skyscraper reshaped Chicago? What if Buckminster Fuller's floating cities became real? What if Paris built a pyramid larger than Giza?

Unbuilt Works explores the world's most ambitious unbuilt architecture, visionary design concepts, and historical projects that came shockingly close to reality.
