Abstract
Abstract
For several reasons, the building we appreciate today is only partly the result of the original scheme and this paper aims to reconstruct the sequence of changes and alterations that occurred in order to help define guidelines for its future restoration. The building is reported in few bibliographic resources and without full details of its method of construction. The account in this paper has not been previously published: while the construction photographs are from the archive of the architect in Arizona, the construction details of the façade were drawn by the author following a direct survey of the building and after consulting the archive of the factory.
