Excerpt from Public Provision for Recreation
The real scope of public recreation is to furnish that kind of recreation which is too urgently needed to permit the city to allow it to go uncared for, and that kind which can be done in a fairly wholesale way. Playgrounds for children of school age are an illustration. As a part of the education and of the development of Cleveland's future citizens, play is an absolute essential. Athletic fields also offer forms of recreation facilities which can be handled in a fairly wholesale way.

Excerpt from Public Provision for Recreation
This report on Public Provision for Recreation is one of the seven sections of the report of the Recreation Survey of Cleveland conducted under the auspices of the Cleveland Foundation. Copies of the reports may be obtained from the Cleveland Foundation. A complete list with prices will be found in the back of this volume.
The general plan of this volume and the standards of space measurements for playground purposes were worked out by Mr. Rowland Haynes. The arrangement of the material and the actual writing of the volume were done by Mr. Stanley P. Davies. In the course of the preparation of the material each playground and community center was examined from the standpoint of a practical administrator by Mr. Harold Berg, who prepared, upon the basis of his investigations, the suggestions for further development of these agencies. The maps shown in this volume, with the exception of the one showing the work of the Public Library, were drawn by Mr. E. A. Ruggles, of the Cleveland Museum of Art.
The Survey is indebted to Miss Linda A. Eastman and the Staff of the Cleveland Public Library for assistance in preparing Chapter VIII.

Public Provision for Recreation (Classic Reprint)
Impresión bajo demandaLibrería: Forgotten Books, London, Reino Unido
Calificación del vendedor: 5 de 5 estrellas
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the state of public resources for recreation in Cleveland, Ohio, at the beginning of the 20th century. The author finds that while there were many private and commercial recreation options, Cleveland lacked ample public spaces for play, especially for children. The author notes that while the city has over 200,000 children and youth under 20, the existing parks and playgrounds would only adequately serve a fraction of this population and offers recommendations to supplement these spaces. This book provides valuable insights into the historical development of public recreation in American cities and remains relevant to contemporary discussions about the importance of accessible and affordable recreation opportunities for all.
