Javier Moro nos presenta al singularísimo Rafael Guastavino, un auténtico genio de la construcción que deslumbró a los grandes magnates norteamericanos, conquistados por las técnicas que empleaba en sus obras para evitar los incendios, el mayor mal de las megalópolis del siglo XIX. Tuvo una vida jalonada de éxitos: de su estudio salieron construcciones tan «neoyorquinas» como la Estación Central, el gran hall de la isla de Ellis, parte del metro, el Carnegie Hall o el Museo Americano de Historia Natural.

No stars.
Size: Medium, Color: Light Grey
This shirt is not oxford, it's flannel and will become a jumble of wrinkles when it's washed and dried. Do not waste your money.

Carharrt Quality
Color: Brown (Passcase)
I purchased this bifold wallet approximately about a month ago for my husband. It seems to have the trusted durable Carharrt quality, but it hasn’t been long enough to review its durability. It’s very nice looking. I gave it a four star due to he did find it stiff & tight fitting at first, it didn’t fit all that he had in his old wallet. I’m sure with time as with any leather it will soften.
