Book Proceedings of the Twelfth National Conference on City Planning

Download or read book Proceedings of the Twelfth National Conference on City Planning written by National Conference on City Planning and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-27 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proceedings of the Twelfth National Conference on City Planning: Cincinnati, April, 19-22, 1920 With this ground-plan of action mapped out, the Commission proceeded to make the fundamental studies of the city which must necessarily constitute the foundation upon which may be built any enduring plan. Traffic counts were made at about 250 points to determine the trend of traffic: (1) foot passengers; (2) automobile trucking; (3) automobile pleasure vehicles; (4) horse drawn vehicles, and (5) trolley cars. This accurate count was charted on maps and tables and proved of immense value in draw ing up a major street plan. The next step was to make a population map representing each five families with a dot. It ought to be emphasized at this point that this map, as all other studies representing the physical char acter and social activities of the city, included every square foot within the corporate limits of St. Louis. The process of map making was a very laborious and costly procedure, but the end achieved fully justified the means in labor and money expended. It was interesting to note how invariably the population fol lowed closely the transit facilities provided by the street-car Sys tem of the city. It explained also why certain sections of the city lacked normal development because of the lack of such street car facilities and was an invaluable aid in developing a rational plan which provides equitable development for the entire city. This Transit Plan, as will be emphasized later, is now completely developed, has been tentatively approved by the officials of the controlling corporation with practically no modification whatso ever and will be published in the near future. The recreational facilities and the use made of them were also charted by dots on the map, each one of which represented a per mit issued by the Department-of Public Welfare for playing tennis, golf, baseball, etc. It illustrated graphically the zone served by each recreational center, and proved, as nothing else could have done, the necessity for providing these facilities in all parts of the city, but especially their urgent need in the most populous districts which, generally speaking, remained unserved at the present time. This was constituted the basis of the Recreational Report which has been published by the Commission. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-01-13 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proceedings the Fourth National Conference on City Planning IT is a happy custom that leads the chief national societies to move the seat of their conventions each year from one city to another. In this way the members become better acquainted with their own country, and even for men of large experience and wide travel, like yourselves, there is instruction to be derived from personally observing the evidences Of growth and change that are constantly going on. This circulating habit is, I should suppose, particularly useful to the members of the City Planning Conference because every new city that you visit affords a local illustration of the problems that you are seeking to solve.

Excerpt: ... war housing Frederick Law Olmsted Fellow American Society of Landscape Architects Brookline, Mass. On the 9th of May, a year ago, the National Conference on City Planning at Kansas City adopted two resolutions and charged me as President with the duty of presenting them in Washington and following them. Whatever the influence of those resolutions upon the general course of events, they have at least profoundly affected the activities of your President during the past year and I trust you will pardon me if my address takes in part the form of a personal narrative of what befell me in pursuit of the duty you laid upon me. In brief the resolutions called the attention of the Washington authorities to the importance of utilizing the principles and methods of city planning, and the experience in such planning accessible through this organization, in dealing with two distinct classes of urgent war problems. One was that of creating communities for the training of soldiers and the other was that of creating or expanding industrial communities in connection with the production of war materials. It happened that Mr. Mauran, President of the American Institute of Architects and one of the speakers at our Kansas City meeting, was already in consultation with the Washington authorities in regard to an offer of architectural services from the members of that Institute and he promptly arranged for an interview with the chairman of the General Munitions Board, afterwards the War Industries Board, of the Council of National Defense. Accompanied by George B. Ford and E. P. Goodrich as a committee I presented the resolutions to the Board. We were received politely but without enthusiasm and referred to the Board's committee on Emergency Construction, of...
