McKim, a name that resonates with architectural brilliance and timeless elegance. From the iconic Hotel Nacional de Cuba in Havana, 1931 to the majestic Bryan Lathrop House in Chicago, Illinois, Front Elevation and Terrace Plan of 1892; McKim's creations have left an indelible mark on the world. In his Study for Amfortas Released by Galahad in The Quest and Achievement of the Holy Grail, c), McKim showcases his artistic prowess alongside his architectural genius. This multifaceted talent is further exemplified through portraits like Ann Dvorak, capturing her beauty with precision and grace. The Boston Public Library stands as a testament to McKim's commitment to knowledge dissemination. Its Bates Hall serves as a sanctuary for seekers of wisdom from all walks of life. Moving onto New York City, where McKim's influence reigns supreme. Penn Station, built in 1910 and immortalized through photographs like NYC: PENN STATION, 1962; it remains an emblematic symbol of grandeur amidst urban chaos. Another gem within this concrete jungle is the J. P. Morgan Library on Madison Avenue. Both its entrance captured beautifully in NYC: MORGAN LIBRARY (1910) and its significance showcased once again through NYC: MORGAN LIBRARY - an architectural marvel that beckons visitors into a world steeped in history. Pennsylvania Station takes us back to NYC: PENN STATION (1911), reminding us of its magnificence when first constructed over a century ago. Meanwhile, the University Club on West 54th Street exudes sophistication and refinement befitting its prestigious members. Through these landmarks like Municipal Building or Penn Station itself; we witness how McKim shaped cities' skylines while leaving behind legacies that continue to inspire generations today.
