Welcome to the Conference

By Thomas Sugrue

As 2013-14 President of the Urban History Association, and as a proud Philadelphian, I am delighted to welcome you to the Seventh Biennial UHA Conference. The year 2014 marks the beginning of a series of anniversaries of major political events impacting cities, including the Civil Rights Act, the War on Poverty, the founding of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Voting Rights Act, the Hart-Celler Immigration Act, and the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. Urban history as a field is more relevant than ever.

Many panels at this year’s conference focus on the theme of “Metropolitics,” reflecting broadly on the relationships among state, local and regional actors across the globe, from the Middle Ages to the present. The richness of topics and the diversity of panelists reflect the vitality of urban-related scholarship today, as both senior scholars and those just beginning their careers present cutting-edge research. You will have the opportunity to hear two-term Philadelphia Mayor and former Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell speak on contemporary urban policy; to attend a special panel on Sunday that pays tribute to former UHA President Michael B. Katz, who passed away in August; and to attend the Plenary Session, where a group of major scholars considers the relationship of urban history to the global economic crisis.

We encourage you to spend some time exploring Philadelphia, one of the most interesting metropolises in the . Within a forty-five minute walk of the Penn campus, you can traverse 350 years of American urban history. The UHA is sponsoring a number of tours in different neighborhoods. Explore a colonial estate and its grounds in West Philadelphia, the legacy of urban renewal and historic preservation in Society Hill, or the informal heroin economy in Kensington. You can lunch in one of America’s oldest Chinatowns or ride a bike along the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. If you don’t want to join a formal tour, you can cover a lot of ground by foot, bike, car, or public transit.

I would like to thank Executive Director Janet Bednarek for her hard work pulling together the conference, not to mention her ten years of service to the UHA; Andrew Sandoval-Strausz and Victoria Wolcott, first-rate program committee co-chairs who did a huge amount of work sifting through proposals, constructing new panels, and developing special sessions; and Howard Gillette and Domenic Vitiello for helping with local arrangements and assembling one of the most interesting rosters of urban tours of any UHA conference to date.

Enjoy your stay in Philadelphia.

Greetings from Philadelphia

By Steven Conn

Welcome to Philadelphia: “They call it the City of Brotherly Love, but really it’s a banana republic.”

That’s how legendary New York Giants football coach Bill Parcells described Philadelphia to his team before a game against the Eagles, re-phrasing a widely held opinion about the city: a tough town with a mean streak, a place where the fans really did boo Santa Claus. A town with a chip on its shoulder whose chief cultural icon remains a semi-articulate boxer from Italian South Philly.

That perception of Philadelphia, a place where working-class guys subsist on a diet of cheesesteaks and pretzels, was created in the middle decades of the last century. It supplanted other, earlier images –nerve center of the Revolution, the Athens of America, a place content and corrupt, a town stodgy and staid – and it was created precisely at the moment when that world of lunch pails, row houses, and factories began to disappear. Rocky, after all, lost the big fight.

So you arrive in a city where meds and eds have surpassed manufacturing as the largest source of employment, where pop-up beer gardens and micro-brews are as popular as the corner tavern, and where the variety of food available from moving vehicles is simply astonishing. Make sure you try the spicy Vietnamese tofu hoagie.

Of all the changes you can witness in Philadelphia right now perhaps the most profound is generational. Those of a certain age, who remember when Rocky premiered and when Frank Rizzo was mayor, who love the city with a fierce defensiveness born of disappointments and loss, will be surprised that you’d want to come visit the place. But they are being replaced by a younger generation drawn by tight neighborhoods, affordable prices, community gardens, and an easy proximity to beaches and mountains, to New York and Washington. They can’t imagine living anywhere else.

Philadelphia is the poorest of the nation’s large cities, and wide swaths of the city have not recovered from the tsunami of deindustrialization. But it isn’t a banana republic (if it ever was), nor is it really Rocky’s town anymore either. There hasn’t been so much energy on the streets since Ben Franklin walked them.

Welcome to Philadelphia.

Steven Conn is Professor of History and Director of the Public History Program at Ohio State University. A native of Philadelphia, he still spends every humid summer in the City of Brotherly Love. His many books include Metropolitan Philadelphia: Living with the Presence of the Past (University of Pennsylvania Press).

7 Thursday, October 9 Overview

12:00-5:00 PM – Registration Houston Hall Lobby

12:30-5:30 PM – Tour (All tours meet in Houston Hall Lobby) Revitalization in Post-industrial Philadelphia. Leaves West Philadelphia at 12:30, with boxed lunch; return to UHA conference opening reception downtown at 5:30. Limit: 50 people. How does a city recover from the loss of thousands of industrial jobs? In this bus and walking tour, headed by urban historians Howard Gillette and Domenic Vitiello with public policy professor Paul Jargowsky, we will visit Philadelphia’s Navy Yard and the neighborhoods of Northern Liberties and North Philadelphia. At the Navy Yard, we will review the 1,200-acre site’s master plan aimed at creating a mixed-use campus based on historic preservation, sustainability, and smart growth. We will tour a number of its new facilities, including the national headquarters of Urban Outfitters, a homegrown company now occupying close to a dozen adapted buildings in its Navy Yard facility. From there we will travel to North Philadelphia, where we will see various examples of neighborhood and anchor institution revitalization focused on vacant land, affordable housing, arts and culture, and urban agriculture. We will meet with some of the region’s leading planning and community development professionals from Interface Studio and the Associación de Puertorriqueños en Marcha (APM) and tour their affordable housing and transit- oriented development sites. Before returning to the UHA conference’s opening reception in Center City, we will stop for a short walk in Northern Liberties, one of the most remarkable examples of gentrification on the edge of Philadelphia's downtown. Sponsored by the Encyclopedia of Philadelphia.

8 Friday, October 10 Overview

8:00 AM-3:00 PM – Registration Houston Hall Lobby

9:00 AM-5:00 PM – Book Exhibit Houston Hall Second Floor Lobby

8:30 AM-5:45 PM – Concurrent Sessions

10:15 AM-12:30 PM – Lunch Tours (All tours meet in Houston Hall Lobby) The Woodlands and West Philadelphia. Leaves Penn campus on foot at 10:15, lunch on Penn campus (bring money for lunch). Limited to 15 people. This tour will begin at the Woodlands, the estate (turned cemetery) of early national Philadelphia’s preeminent connoisseur of plants, William Hamilton. Hamilton’s mansion (ca. 1770-1795) is among the most important works of Federal Style domestic architecture in the United States and makes use of the surrounding landscape in ways reminiscent of Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello. After walking briskly through open areas of the house, we will stroll out into the surrounding Woodlands Cemetery, one of Philadelphia’s first “rural” cemeteries and the final resting place of Thomas Eakins, Paul Cret, and Napoleon III’s dentist. Proceeding out the front gate, we’ll visit clusters of mid-19th c. suburban villas built on land that once belonged to Hamilton, then make our way to Penn’s campus, where St. Mary’s Church and Hamilton Walk reconnect us to the Hamilton story. Urban Renewal in Society Hill. Leaves Penn campus via subway at 10:15, return after lunch (bring money for lunch). Limited to 15 people. One of Philadelphia’s oldest neighborhoods, Society Hill was also the site of a landmark mid-20th century urban renewal project that combined slum clearance with historic preser- vation. Led by Francesca Russello Ammon, author of the forthcoming book Culture of Clearance: Bulldozers and the Construction of Postwar America, our walking tour will begin at Independence Mall and then weave throughout the neighborhood. We will survey streets of rowhouses—including preserved colonial and colonial revival homes, as well as scattered 1960s-era new construction—Edmund Bacon’s signature greenways, neighborhood parks and public art, Headhouse Square, and I.M. Pei’s Society Hill Towers and townhouses superblock project. Afterwards, tour participants will have time for lunch in Old City. The Kensington Heroin Market. Leaves Penn campus via subway at 10:15, return around noon for lunch near Penn. Limited to 10 people; no open-toed shoes. Led by historian Eric Schneider, whose book Smack: Heroin and the American City won the UHA’s Ken Jackson Book Prize, this tour will explore the origins, workings, and attempts to cope with Philadelphia’s heroin market, one of the largest in the U.S. We will take a short walk to see the site of a needle exchange, drug markets along Indiana Avenue, and McPherson Square, now considerably rehabilitated through community efforts from its previous condition as a “needle park.” The area is a typical Philadelphia rowhouse and factory neighborhood where deindustrialization and housing abandonment were crucial to the emergence of a drug selling and using cityscape.

8:30 AM-5:45 PM – Concurrent Sessions

10:15 AM-12:30 PM – Lunch Tours (All tours meet in Houston Hall Lobby) City Beautiful Bike Tour. Leaves Penn campus at 10:15; bicycles and helmets provided by PennCycle, a student- run bike-share program; return for lunch nearby campus (bring money for lunch). Limited to 15 people. When it was built in the 1920s, Philadelphians believed the Benjamin Franklin Parkway would be the American Champs Elysees. Led by historian and Philadelphia native Steven Conn, author of Museums and American Intellectual Life and Metropolitan Philadelphia, this bike tour will look at the highlights of this extraordinary City Beautiful project, including its world-class museums and the Parkway’s place in the larger Fairmount Park system. Chinatown: Urban Redevelopment and Neighborhood Preservation. Leaves Penn campus via subway at 10:15, return after lunch in Chinatown (bring money for lunch). Limited to 15 people. Like other downtown Chinatowns across North America, Philadelphia’s Chinatown has been an important site of Urban Renewal and more recent large-scale redevelopment, as well as of highway (and stadium, prison, and casino) revolts, affordable housing development, and other efforts at neighborhood preservation. Led by historian Domenic Vitiello, on our short walk we will visit streets, alleys, affordable housing, condos, old and new redevelopment projects, community organizations, and restaurants through which we will explore the social, cultural, economic, and urban planning and development history of Chinatown.

12:00-2:15 PM – Lunch Tour (All tours meet in Houston Hall Lobby) Can Philadelphia's Center Hold? A Century of Renewal and Redevelopment around Center Square. Leaves Penn campus via subway at 12:00 for lunch at Reading Terminal Market (bring money for lunch), followed by tour. Limited to 15 people. This walk will examine the ever-changing center of “center city,” surveying the blocks around Philadelphia's city hall. Led by urban historian Chris Klemek, author of The Trans- atlantic Collapse of Urban Renewal, we will examine multiple generations of evolving renewal fashions: from a bold parkway project by City Beautiful francophiles, through post-World War Two urban renewal schemes by Philadelphia School luminaries (Ed Bacon, Louis Kahn, and others), and right down to post- modern historic preservation/adaptation in our own era of post-industrial conventioneering!

8:30 AM-12:00 PM – Tours (All tours meet in Houston Hall Lobby) Beyond the Post-industrial City: Camden in Transition. Leaves West Philadelphia by bus 8:30, return at 12:00. Limited to 25 people. Despite its reputation as one of the nation’s poorest cities, Camden has been boosted in recent years under Mayor Dana Redd’s vision for public safety, jobs and education success, and the financial assistance of the New Jersey Economic Opportunity Act of 2013. Joining historian Howard Gillette, Mayor Redd and Camden Redevelopment Agency Executive Director Saundra Johnson will point out elements of the city’s renewal, including the billion dollar Education and Medical (EDs/MEDs) anchor institutions neighborhood investment, the $90 million KROC Center, the recently announced 76ers’ new headquarters and practice center, and the expansion of Campbell’s Soup, Camden’s only Fortune 500 company. Revisiting Du Bois' Seventh Ward. Leaves West Philadelphia on public transit 8:30, return at 12:00. Limited to 25 people. Walk the streets and alleys of the Old Seventh Ward, the neighborhood W.E.B. Du Bois studied for his 1899 classic, The Philadelphia Negro, and learn how the area that was once home to blacks, immigrants, and US-born whites across social classes has become one of Center City's most expensive residential areas. Led by social worker and planning professor Amy Hillier, director of The Ward: Race and Class in DuBois’ Seventh Ward project, highlights of this walking tour include a visit to Mother Bethel, the first African Methodist Episcopal Church founded by Richard Allen in 1794, and the story behind the painting of the mural "Mapping Courage" honoring Du Bois on South Street. We'll also hear a tale of murder, participate in a group poetry reading, and look at manuscript census records to learn more about the people of this historic neighborhood. We'll grab lunch along the way at one of South Street's many hip take-out restaurants.
