The collection also contains information on local communities, especially Chicago landmarks and Oak Lawn Formats: Publications, pamphlets, newspaper sections, newspaper clippings, surveys, financial reports, cassette recordings, video home system (VHS) recordings. Scope and Content: This collection includes items related to Evergreen Park and its surrounding communities. Its strength lays in the amount of historical information pertaining to the settlement and growth of Evergreen Park as well as prominent Chicago buildings and landmarks. The collection primarily consists of many publications and newspaper sections celebrating Evergreen Park‘s 75th and 100th anniversaries. Also included are numerous community guides that provide general and specific community information about Evergreen Park and its local communities. The majority of the newspaper sections are from the Evergreen Park Courier and the community awareness sections from the Chicago Tribune and Chicago Sun-Times. Also contained in this collection are items about prominent people and places in Evergreen Park, such as items from former E.P. mayor, Anthony Vacco, retirement party including a VHS tribute, a cassette recording of an interview with the matriarch of the E.P. Library, Aimee Martin, the Little Company of Mary Hospital, Most Holy Redeemer Church, the Christian Reformed Church, and numerous newspaper clippings documenting the accomplishments of Evergreen Park residents. Historical Note: On December 20th, 1893, Evergreen Park was incorporated as a village in Illinois. Forty people out of fifty-one voted in a referendum to ensure Evergreen independence rather than become annexed into the booming metropolis, Chicago. The early founders of Evergreen Park chose the name because of the numerous pine trees in the park at 97th and Homan. They had hoped to replicate the Arch of Triumph in Paris with the park as the village‘s center. The growth of the new village was largely due to Local History Collection, Evergreen Park Local History Page 1 Evergreen Park Public Library the land boom and entrepreneurial interest in Chicago during the 1830‘s. By 1875 early settlers had created the area‘s first school (95th and Spaulding) and the dirt intersection of 95th and Kedzie became the hub of the fledgling area. Since its inception, the village paralleled the experience of the nation as it sent 10 men to World War I, encountered organized crime during the Prohibition era, struggled through the Great Depression while benefitting from many of the New Deal programs, and patriotically supported the war effort during World War II. Following World War II, Evergreen‘s population nearly doubled from a little less than 5,000 inhabitants to more than 10,000 in 1950. With this population boom came improvements to water and sanitation conditions in order to provide a habitable environment suitable for a larger population. By 1967 the ―Village of Churches,‖ a nickname given to Evergreen because of its abundant number of churches, had grown to 26,280 residents. The 1970‘s brought a time of crisis and despair. Evergreen Park suffered the loss of eight residents during the Vietnam War and an oil embargo skyrocketed gas prices to a then unheard of dollar per gallon. During the 1980‘s, Evergreen experienced a decline of population to roughly 22,260 people. The population continued to decline during the 1990‘s to around 20,000 where it currently resides. Today, the Village of Evergreen Park boasts a renovated municipality building, police station, library, and many new commercial establishments. Despite the change, the village still maintains 95th and Kedzie as its central hub just as it did during its inception in 1893. Bibliography: Leeder, William and Stephanie.

Introduction The Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS) was started in 1933 as one of the New Deal make-work programs, to employ jobless architects, draftspeople, and photographers. Its purpose is to document the nation’s architectural heritage, especially those buildings that are in danger of ruin or deliberate destruction. Today, the HABS is part of the National Park Service and its repository is in the Library of Congress, much of which is available online at loc.gov. Of the tens of thousands HABS buildings, I found 44 Frank Lloyd Wright designs that have been digitized. Each HABS survey includes photographs and/or drawings and/or a report. I’ve included here what the Library of Congress had–sometimes all three, sometimes two of the three, and sometimes just one. There might be a single photo or drawing, or, such as in the case of Florida Southern College (in volume two), over a hundred.

    12 Architects that Changed the World 24 JANUARY 2011 77 COMMENTS inShare100 From time to time, there is a great artist that changes the way we perceive masterpieces and other people and gives us new emotions. Still, humanity gives birth to visionaries in other domains as well. And architecture is yet another great field where these bright minds create marvels and change perspectives. Some architects are even responsible for creating masterpieces with an emotional impact on people and can change the way we perceive cities and countries. Artists or not, these farsighted architects, were and many continue to be, the masters in redesigning our future. Here are 12 great builders that through their innovation spirit and devotion changed our world. 1. Oscar Niemeyer (b. December 15, 1907) His portrait Oscar Ribeiro de Almeida Niemeyer Soares Filho is considered to be a pioneer in creating new possibilities for using the reinforced concrete just for aesthetical reasons. He started with designing the first state-sponsored skyscraper in the world, for the Brazilian government. It was completed in 1943 and after decades it was recognized as the first example of Brazilian modernism. He was part of the international team that designed the UN headquarters in New York and his conceptual plan was the main source of inspiration for the constructors. His membership in the Brazilian Communist Party limited his chances of working in the United States and got him exiled up until 1985. By the time the exile ended, he designed the main administration buildings in Brasilia, the country’s new capital city.
