Download or read book The Plan of Chicago written by Carl Smith and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-08-01 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguably the most influential document in the history of urban planning, Daniel Burnham’s 1909 Plan of Chicago, coauthored by Edward Bennett and produced in collaboration with the Commercial Club of Chicago, proposed many of the city’s most distinctive features, including its lakefront parks and roadways, the Magnificent Mile, and Navy Pier. Carl Smith’s fascinating history reveals the Plan’s central role in shaping the ways people envision the cityscape and urban life itself. Smith’s concise and accessible narrative begins with a survey of Chicago’s stunning rise from a tiny frontier settlement to the nation’s second-largest city. He then offers an illuminating exploration of the Plan’s creation and reveals how it embodies the renowned architect’s belief that cities can and must be remade for the better. The Plan defined the City Beautiful movement and was the first comprehensive attempt to reimagine a major American city. Smith points out the ways the Plan continues to influence debates, even a century after its publication, about how to create a vibrant and habitable urban environment. Richly illustrated and incisively written, his insightful book will be indispensable to our understanding of Chicago, Daniel Burnham, and the emergence of the modern city.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The work contained in this report is a contribution to first-year program development activities and was prepared in fulfillment of an agreement with the Division of Water Resources. This volume contains three interrelated work elements: land use and ownership data gathering and analysis, existing land use policy -- inventory and analysis, and impact implications of shore protection measurements. The land use inventory includes an analysis of existing use patterns in the shoreline study area and the description of an information monitoring system. The policy analysis examines the policies and practices of each community toward land and water resource use and shoreline protection. The shore protection study identifies vulnerable man-made and natural conditions along the shore and inventories alternative measures for protecting the shore. The information and analysis provided in these elements will be useful in the second year for further studies of resource capacities and multiple-use needs along the Lake Michigan Shore.
