Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chicago Beautiful: Parks and Boulevards Chicago is justly proud of her system of parks and boulevards. The park system of over 5,000 acres, embraces 60 parks, 90 playgrounds, and 3 public bathing beaches. It would take several days to visit all these parks and playgrounds, but the trip herein described (which can be made by automobile in a few hours) takes one through the most important parks and boulevards. It gives an idea of what Chicago is doing to provide places of rest and recreation for its cosmopolitan population - the interest taken in the welfare of the children and of a higher citizenship.

Download or read book Urban Green written by Peter Harnik and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2012-07-16 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For years American urban parks fell into decay due to disinvestment, but as cities began to rebound—and evidence of the economic, cultural, and health benefits of parks grew— investment in urban parks swelled. The U.S. Conference of Mayors recently cited meeting the growing demand for parks and open space as one of the biggest challenges for urban leaders today. It is now widely agreed that the U.S. needs an ambitious and creative plan to increase urban parklands. Urban Green explores new and innovative ways for “built out” cities to add much-needed parks. Peter Harnik first explores the question of why urban parkland is needed and then looks at ways to determine how much is possible and where park investment should go. When presenting the ideas and examples for parkland, he also recommends political practices that help create parks. The book offers many practical solutions, from reusing the land under defunct factories to sharing schoolyards, from building trails on abandoned tracks to planting community gardens, from decking parks over highways to allowing more activities in cemeteries, from eliminating parking lots to uncovering buried streams, and more. No strategy alone is perfect, and each has its own set of realities. But collectively they suggest a path toward making modern cities more beautiful, more sociable, more fun, more ecologically sound, and more successful.
