Replanning Reading: An Industrial City Of A Hundred Thousand (1910) is a book written by John Nolen, an American urban planner and landscape architect. The book details Nolen's proposed urban planning strategy for the city of Reading, Pennsylvania, which had a population of around 100,000 in 1910. Nolen's plan aimed to address the issues of overcrowding, poor living conditions, and inadequate infrastructure that plagued the city at the time. He proposed a comprehensive redesign of the city's layout, including the creation of new parks, the expansion of the street grid, and the construction of new housing and commercial areas. The book provides a detailed analysis of the existing conditions in Reading, as well as a thorough explanation of Nolen's proposed changes. It includes maps, diagrams, and illustrations to help readers visualize the proposed changes. Replanning Reading: An Industrial City Of A Hundred Thousand is considered a seminal work in the field of urban planning and is often cited as an early example of comprehensive city planning. It remains a valuable resource for urban planners and historians interested in the history of American cities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
