Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an in-depth examination of regulations governing building and construction in the municipality of Boston circa 1882. By delving into the legal framework and technical specifications of the era, the author provides insights into the architectural landscape and building practices of a burgeoning metropolis. The book explores the historical context of building regulations, from the devastating fires and unsanitary living conditions that prompted them, to the growing need for safety and habitability standards in a rapidly expanding city. Thematic depth is found in the rich discussion of fire prevention measures, such as the use of non-combustible materials and the installation of fire escapes. The author also examines the social implications of building regulations, touching on issues of tenement housing and the living conditions of the urban poor. Ultimately, this book not only provides a comprehensive overview of construction regulations in 19th-century Boston but also sheds light on the broader social and economic forces that shaped the city's built environment.
