Excerpt from City Plan for Akron: Prepared for Chamber of Commerce, 1919 Your City Improvement Committee, through the courtesy of its chair man and largely at his personal expense, is pleased to submit herewith a report, City Plan for Akron, prepared by John Nolen of Cambridge, Massachusetts, one of the best-known city planning experts in this country. Akron, since its establishment as a village in 1836 and its incorpora tion as a city in 1865, has grown to a population of about without any thought as to its proper development. It therefore lacks the proper thoroughfares for adequately handling the traffic of such a city; it lacks adequate parks and boulevards; it is without a civic center, and no thought has been given to the laying out of its industrial and business districts nor the protection of its residential sections. The plan herewith submitted, if adopted by the city and supported by the cooperation of our citizens, will provide remedies for these conditions and for a proper future development of our city.
