Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American zoos flourished during the Great Depression, thanks to federal programs that enabled local governments to build new zoological parks, complete finished ones, and remodel outdated facilities. This historical text examines community leaders' successful advocacy for zoo construction in the context of poverty and widespread suffering, arguing that they provided employment, stimulated tourism, and democratized leisure. Of particular interest is the rise of the zoo professional, which paved the way for science and conservation agendas. The text explores the New Deal's profound impact on zoos and animal welfare and the legacy of its programs in zoos today.

Download or read book Seattle Parks Department Property Acquisition Records written by Seattle (Wash.). Department of Parks and Recreation and published by . This book was released on 1908 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Records include correspondence, memoranda, reports, deeds, property appraisals, architectural plans and other documents relating to the creation and development of recreational sites within Seattle's system of parks. During the late 1960s and early 1970s, the park network began a phase of significant expansion of facilities on a level unseen since the 1920s. This growth was due in large part to an influx of funding from the federal Model Cities Program for urban development, as well as a $118 million Forward Thrust bond initiative that passed in 1968. The documents in this collection detail the planning, appraisal, acquisition, and maintenance of targeted properties prior to their development and public use as parkland. A majority of the records concern the negotiation with property owners for purchase of land, though smaller sections on structure demolition, relocation of businesses and inhabitants, and management of park-owned properties that are still occupied are also present. Notable subject sites include Carkeek Park, Occidental Square, Montlake Playfield, and Genesee Park. The records derive primarily from the period 1966 to 1975.
