Historically-significant buildings across the nation are being torn down in record numbers. USA Today speaks out.
"Unless you live in a really big city or a very small town, most of the buildings you see -- the glass-box office towers, the chunky, flat-roofed schools and courthouses, even the gas stations and fast-food joints -- owe something to an architectural movement that began in Europe and swept across the United States in the 1930s and 1940s. Love it or hate it, modernism created the look of almost every suburban building except your house."
