Abstract:

Blue line architectural drawings collected by Shinji Yamamoto (probably while serving as State Architect of Wisconsin) of the Monona Terrace Civic Center designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and the Monona Basin Project by William Wesley Peters. The Monona Terrace Civic Center drawings include plans, elevations, and sections dated December 1, 1956 and February 15, 1959. These are believed to be the most complete set of drawings, either in copy or original, of the February 15, 1959 version of the Terrace. The one drawing for the Monona Basin Project is the development master plan which is undated.
