The collection consists of drawings, models, photographs, slides, professional correspondence and contracts, articles and unpublished manuscripts, teaching and lecture notes and personal and professional memorabilia, such as architectural licenses and certificates, as well as articles and clippings about his work. Included are photographs and records of his early work and projects; competition entries from all periods of his career; planning studies that Goodman undertook, including those he supervised as Professor of Design and Urban Planning at Columbia University's School of Architecture, as well as graduate student projects. A major component are the files of Goodman's post-World War II jobs (1946-79), primarily religious, institutional and domestic work, both built and unexecuted; this material contains a large collections of photographs as well as other documentation, primarily for the sixty-some synagogues that Goodman designed." -- Study Guide to the Percival Goodman Collection, Avery Architectural and Fine Arts Library / prepared by Joy Kestenbaum.
