Poems of an Indian summer
To throw a shadow on the earth
The Abode of Fancy
The fire of oak logs
The housewarming ceremony
The perverse arrangement of older houses
The pitched roof
I could never live in a house like that
Secreted
Tree, leaf, house, city
20 Minutes in Manhattan
At Home: A Short History of Private Life
Homes at Night
You're living in your very last house
A Song by Lo-Fang

Criticism of the grid and its difficulties was voiced from the start. Olmsted himself noted several problems that arose from the fixed dimensions of the city’s blocks: the impossibility of producing sites for very large buildings and campuses; issues of daylighting; the difficulty of creating systems of formal and symbolic hierarchy within the field of uniformity.
