Description - The City Beautiful Movement by William H. Wilson

Critics of the turn-of-the-century's City Beautiful Movement denounced its projects - broad, tree-lined boulevards and monumental but low-lying civic buildings - as grandiose and unnecessary. In this analysis, William H. Wilson sees the movement as its founders did: as an exercise in participatory politics aimed at changing the way citizens thought about cities.
