Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book outlines the development plan for Houston, Texas, written in 1913. The author observed urban centers were trending towards becoming more metropolitan in nature with more opportunities for commerce and industry and increasing means of transportation. This growth in urban areas resulted in the author emphasizing the importance of properly planning for developing a city with adequate means for its citizens to move about; both pedestrian traffic and via electric and traditional means. The author also stresses the multifaceted needs of public spaces for the health and harmony of the city including recreation centers, playgrounds, parks, and civic squares for Houstonâs growing population. The author demonstrates an understanding of the complexities of a modern city and lays out a foundation for a grand vision of what Houston could become. This plan considers the impact of commercial and residential growth on the city as well as the importance of ensuring all citizens have access to their fair share of green spaces and recreational opportunities.
