Making the Mission
When and how does a neighborhood become a political actor? How does a collective identity take shape out of local politics? In his fantastically precise and well-illustrated study of the Mission District in San Francisco, Ocean Howell draws together the perspectives of formal and informal groups, as well as city officials and district residents, as they together work and occasionally fight to establish the bounds of "the public," "the public interest," and "what the neighborhood wants." Howell also articulates the development and nuances of Latino political power in the district, bringing out stories and context that have received little attention until now. In the process, he shows that national narratives about how cities grow and change are always insufficient; everything is always shaped by local actors and concerns.
Supplementary Report of the Urbanism Committee to the National Resources Committee: Urban planning and land policies
"On August 9, 1937, the National Resources Committee submitted to the President its report on 'Our cities--their role in the national economy.' In the course of preparing this report a large volume of basic data and information was collected which could not then be included. The publication of these supplementary volumes has been undertaken to make such data and information available."--Vol. l, p. iii.
