Book Description
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Sixth National Conference on City Planning: Toronto, May 25-27, 1914 I look upon it both as a privilege and a pleasure to have this opportunity of addressing the first Town Planning Congress ever held in Canada. Firstly, I consider that it was a wise decision on your part and a hopeful augury for the future to hold your initial meeting in Toronto. The energy, good taste and public spirit of its citizens have resulted in the construction of a very beautiful, spacious city, and I think the genius loci of the place will not be without effect on your deliberations. Secondly, the question which you are considering is one that I look upon as among the most pressing of the many problems that are confronting the public men of our cities in Canada today. European countries, unfortunately, know only too well the evils that have arisen from want of foresight in Town Planning. To begin with, houses and streets are allowed to grow in haphazard fashion. Later on, as a town increases in population, what was at first merely a want of method develops into a serious danger, and may end in the creation of a slum quarter, with all the physical, mental and moral decadence that the word "slum" involves. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in our edition. We do, however, repair the vast majority of imperfections successfully; any imperfections that remain are intentionally left to preserve the state of such historical works.
