This book presents the most complete analysis of land use in a major American city ever conducted. It's based on an exhaustive survey of every parcel of land in Chicago, and provides a detailed, map-based inventory of how the city's land was being utilized at a given point in time. The work sought to establish a baseline of land use that could be used for planning purposes and to inform policymakers as the city entered the post-World War II era. The book remains one of the most important products of the Chicago Plan Commission, and an invaluable reference for anyone interested in urban planning or the history of Chicago.
