Scope and content:

Research files comprise topics of interest to Huxtable and often relate to themes explored in her published writing. While this series includes topical files, the focus of the research files is on subject matter related to national and international geographical locations, with a substantial portion devoted to New York City. Other particular locations of interest to Huxtable were Boston, Washington, DC and Great Britain. This series also includes files on people who are not identified primarily as architects, such as city planners, designers or writers. Specific cultural, academic or political institutions also included in this series are filed with the city where those institutions are located.

Identified typescripts of Huxtable's writings originally filed with research materials were moved to Series II. Duplicates of identified typescripts or clippings were retained here in their original research file.

Arrangement:

Files are arranged alphabetically. International locations are filed by country and national locations are filed by city. The files retain Huxtable's original titles and order. For this reason older geographical name designations have been retained in the description.
