Item description from seller

131 pages. "An analysis of the demand for housing in Center City Philadelphia 1957 to 1970, with reference to the Washington Square East Redevelopment Area." "Chester A. Rapkin, an influential theorist of urban planning who came up with the novel designation SoHo for the rapidly changing community south of Houston Street in Manhattan. Dr. Rapkin was a co-author of a pioneering 1950's study on what has since become standard thinking in the planning field: that land use must integrate vehicular traffic patterns. In the mid-1960's he was a member of the task force that proposed federal financing of the Model Cities program, and from 1969 to 1977 he served on the New York City Planning Commission. ''He was one of the leading thinkers in American planning,'' said John E. Zuccotti, a former chairman of the planning commission, ''a practical planner who understood theory but, at the same time, knew that it is always done within the reality of politics.'' FINE HARDCOVER, signed by the author. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. …
