Of this type, Wash- ington is the most notable illus- tration, But it is seldom possible to foresee with accuracy the future of a town or a city, or to plan for it from the beginning. ‘“When however a small popu- lation has been attracted to a town by natural causes and there are indications that because of situ- ation, climate, the trend of trade and commerce an important city is to be established, then if ac- is taken soon enough it irely practicable to replan so as to provide satisfactorily® for its future. | “The gravest neglect is the meet increased demands, to use art and skill and foresight to re- model existing conditions, and also to mould and fit for use the new out-lying territory about to be seem, needs to be placed less or the original plan, and more on re- planning. | “Throughout the United States | there are cities with comparative- ly easy opportunities to improve their water frontages, to group their public buildings, to widen their main. streets, to provide for transportation, and to ‘set aside the areas necessary for recreation. Yet, until recently the people of most of these cities have stood listless, . without the business sense, skill, or courage to begin a work that must sooner or later | be done. | “The small cities of the United States have not made many of the improvements that are so essen- tial to modern life. Their streets are ‘still obstructed and rendered | dangerous as well by unsightly poles and wires; their school grounds are usually too small; their playgrounds inadequate and} undeveloped; their water fronts tered; their parks detached tracts of land unrelated one to the other. The small cities have not yet solv- | ed the serious ‘problems related to| railroad grade crossings. They | have not acted comprehensively with regard to main streets or pleasure driving or street exten- sions in general. In brief they have not applied the business-like and economical methods of the city-making. The American city | still suffers in‘many ways from} haphazard, piecemeal, and short- sighted’ procedure. “Fortunately a change is appar- ent.

This wide- spread civic awakening is no vague movement with vague and indefinite aims. It seeks to pro- vide convenience in streets and builditgs, to meet the demands of public health, to recognize the true’ function and place of art, to regard obligations to future gen- erations, to supply the imperative needs of children, to satisfy the love of nature and the desire for outdoor life. “But the form of — this civic awakening that is most significant | is the recognition of the need of comprehensive planning and re- planning of the smaller cities, where so much is practicable./ This is not a movement to make/ towns beautiful in a superficial) sense. Its purposes are funda-/ mental. , It aims consciously to provide ‘those facilities. that are/ for the common good, that con-| cern everybody. | | “It seeks to save waste, the al-| most incalculable waste due to; unskilful and planless procedure, | for by doing these things at the right time and in the right way comprehensive city planning saves, far more than its cost.
