The Planning and Architecture Internet Resource Center (PAIRC), maintained
by the University at Buffalo School of Architecture and Planning, is a
comprehensive directory of World Wide Web, Gopher and FTP resoruces on the
Internet relating to the built environment.
Over the past month, I've made some signifigant changes to the PAIRC
(Planning and Architecture Internet Resource Center) site at UB. The
biggest change is the implementation of a real searchable database of the
various built environment resources that PAIRC links to. (Previously,
PAIRC category pages were hard-coded). In the process of creating the new
database, a lot of new sites were found and many new categories were added.
PAIRC now contains links to 3400 Web, Gopher and FTP sites with urban
planning, architecture and landscape architecture related information, in
the following categories -
Architecture History
Architecture Images and Exhibits
Architecture Related Products and Services
Books, CD-ROMS and Publishers
