First sentence: (Project 4404, unbuilt) We cannot be sure how many of Mies's drawings have been lost or have strayed, but the uncommon abundance of graphic material related to the IIT Library and Administration Building-870 sheets, substantially more than remain for any other building on the campus-may be taken as a measure of the importance of the project and of the seriousness with which its architect approached it.
