Sinossi
Excerpt from First Annual Report of the Department of Architecture of the State of New York for the Fiscal Year Ending September 30, 1914: Transmitted to the Legislature April 8, 1915
The Department of Architecture is distinctly of a different type and function and therefore not comparable to other State depart ments directing the expenditure of public funds for public works. It is exclusivelv a department of service to the administrative de partments securing appropriations and dictating the terms of ex penditure. It does not secure appropriations, endorse their pro priety (except as the State Architect is associated in person upon specific State boards), conduct building on its own initiative, or have any connection with the Operation of its work when turned over to the State. Consequently, the Department of Architecture is dependent for its justification upon the volume of work which is imposed upon it by the State authorities securing the appropria tions, and such volume of work directly governs the cost of the Department.
