Excerpt from Planning Problems of Town, City and Region: Presented at the Twenty-Fourth National Conference on City Planning, Held at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, November 14 to 16, 1932
The average' American city is about the most wasteful of all the creations of man. Increased debt and ever mounting taxes are manifestations of deep-seated economic ills. Unsatisfactory living conditions from which so'much of our population has attempted to escape are plain evidence of unsound social standards.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the convergence of urban, city and regional planning practices. It presents the proceedings of the 24th National Conference on City Planning. Discussions include housing, economic disintegration of cities, and the need for balance between design and social standards in urban planning. The text also analyzes how the American community will change over the next 50 years. The author maintains that cities are not capable of limitless expansion and that economic disintegration may be inevitable without drastic action. The author contends that preventing the economic disintegration of American cities requires considering the total number of people that will be provided for in the next 30 to 50 years and the total area required for urban purposes.
