We were the products of war-weary parents who themselves had been children of the Depression era. But the end of the war signaled a period of economic growth and development that put the United States on track to be the world’s richest and most powerful nation. We grew up in a time of plenty and our parents continued to expand our families for almost two more decades. Thus we became the “baby boomers” – a term first seen in an article in the Washington Post in 1970 – and therefore we were named and classified. We had power from the get-go, in terms of sheer numbers, wealth, and educational achievement. We have been described as a swallowed pig moving through a boa constrictor, changing the shape and perspective of the host. Our generation was seen as living in a Norman Rockwell world. But that image was deceptive.

Zimmerman Submitted to the Department of Urban Studies and Planning on May 21, 1998 in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in City Planning ABSTRACT The unique and attractive character of small towns across the country is being threatened by growth and development that is inconsistent with the existing built environment. Planners in these communities can combat this trend and slow the loss of character by utilizing planning tools that include long-range visioning and creative zoning and permitting techniques that encourage developers to examine and complement the existing formal characteristics. This thesis will examine the situation of Waconia, Minnesota - a typical rural community facing the pressures of development.

  • Wonderland Amusement Park Was a Sight to Behold. in a City Lit Only By
    KATIE THORNTON ARCHIVING SEX PROFESSOR PABLO MITCHELL AMERICA IN WONDERLAND: DEFINING THE NATION IN THE EARLY AMUSEMENT PARKS OF MINNEAPOLIS/ST. PAUL Wonderland Amusement Park was a sight to behold. In a city lit only by dim gaslight when the park opened in 1905, the park’s 25,000 light bulbs were a shock to the system, an awesome feat of modernity. The electric tower alone was covered on all sides with over 7,000 bulbs, making it the park’s most prominent feature, visible from over five miles away, shining on amusement devices as yet unseen in this part of the country, and beckoning curious city residents to engage in the new entertainment of amusement parks. The attractions themselves posited physical sensation, pleasure, and even fear as a means of enjoyment—a new, mechanized “relaxation” at high speeds. Bought only eight months prior, the four square block area displayed shiny red and white buildings of enamel and tin, demonstrating the new speed and aesthetic of modern urban construction. Built just blocks away from a major trolley hub and along a major streetcar line on the popular industrial and residential corridor of Lake Street in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Wonderland was easily accessible from virtually anywhere in the Twin Cities. Residents came to this place of bright lights, physical exhilaration, modern architecture, and public leisure all via the trolley, itself representing modernity, and here they encountered a shocking coalescence of the modern and the industrial.1 Among such attractions as the 45 mile per hour “scenic railway,” the “Air Ship Swing,” the “House of Nonsense,” and the “Shoot-the-Chutes” water ride (second in height only to that at New York’s Coney Island), the park’s most popular attraction was housed in a nondescript two story building.
