Book Description
At the turn of the 20th century, downtown Phoenix was the center of commerce and government of the young city. North of downtown, the homes of business and civic leaders, along with farms and ranches, lined Central Avenue, informally known as "Millionaires' Row." As the city grew, houses and agricultural operations eventually yielded to subdivisions, commercial buildings, and high-rises. While midtown Phoenix changed dramatically over the years, it has retained much of its historic character and is continuously evolving to meet the needs of the community.

Kansas City's Historic Midtown Neighborhoods
Author: Mary Jo Draper
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 1439650349
Category : Photography
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
The unique character of Midtown--from Thirty-first to Fifty-fifth Streets, State Line to the Paseo--grew out of its development as the streetcar suburbs of an expanding Kansas City. As residents both rich and poor moved out of the crowded downtown area after 1880, Midtown neighborhoods were built. The first wave brought mansions to major streets such as Armour Boulevard, Troost Avenue, and Broadway Boulevard, and later a housing shortage spurred the development of Midtown's unique apartment buildings. Well-known architects and local developers created bungalows, shirtwaists, and tree-lined residential streets. Churches and schools, business districts, movie theaters, and other entertainment venues quickly followed residents in their migration to the "south side." By the 1940s, Midtown's growing residential districts had developed into today's popular neighborhoods, including Center City, Coleman Highlands, Countryside, Crestwood, Heart of Westport, Hyde Park, Manheim Park, Old Hyde Park, Plaza-Westport, Rockhill, Volker, Roanoke, South Plaza, Southmoreland, Squier Park, Sunset Hill, Troostwood, Valentine, West Plaza, and Westwood Park.

Office Development
Author: Michael Bateman
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000389766
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
Originally published in 1985, this book examines the impact financial institutions have on the location of investment of vast resources, including office development. An analysis of their behaviour is crucial to an understanding of the 20th Century urban development process. This book documents some of the international activity of property investment. Some cities in the UK, USA and France are examined in detail to demonstrate the huge physical impact of this development process. The constraints on office development are also discussed. A recurring theme is the power of the supply side of the development industry in comparison with the relatively weak position of the office end-user.
