Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book gathers responses from leaders of government, the social sector, and the business world concerning regional planning and urban issues in the New York metropolitan region. During the 1960s, Regional Plan Association organized a series of public meetings, research proposals, and public education events to inform the public about its Second Regional Plan. This book compiles a detailed overview of these events. The publication features a collection of data on income, education, and housing preferences from a survey of 2,000 participants in the planning program. It also offers information presented at a major conference of top civic and business figures, focusing on reactions from the Committee on the Second Regional Plan, a 135-person committee that met to review the plan's concepts and make suggestions. Discussion topics include the future of the central business district in Manhattan, poverty, racial discrimination, and the potential of centers of business, culture, and education outside of traditional downtown areas. The book concludes by emphasizing the continued need for a responsible entity to represent citizen interests on region-shaping issues in the New York metropolitan area, given the constantly evolving nature of urban planning. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
