ARTCRAFT ENGRAVI HS LTD. (416) 787-0687 (MU) 4*>'> 6840 LONDON TBRONTO TEAM MESSAGE The theme for 1977 is "HAVE FUN & ENJOY YOURSELF AT THE BALLPARK". This goes for the fans as well as those with designated duties, umpires, and ball players. We of London should realize that we have one of the best settings to enjoy baseball in the world. PLEASE, take just a couple of minutes to look at the beauty before you. After you set this presidence you will enjoy yourself at the ball­ park everytime you return, no matter the event on the field or the outcome. From the enclosed stands you have before you a beautifully manicured infield, with a uniformly, fenced outfield. [Not the most practical, but definately solid.Oomph I] Beyond the left field fence are a row of evergreens, that I think give the ball-park THAT extra touch of beauty. [ Notice all the different greens.] Let your eyes rise just for a moment out of the ball-park. You are now looking at ELDON HOUSE and the London skyline. With a little imagination this could be a hide­ away in the mountains. Just before you return to the ball-park gaze into the endless blue sky with the odd white cloud. [Drift for a moment.] You are now at peace and ready to gently return to a now romantically lit ball-park for a couple of enjoyable, leasure hours of that wonderful invention "BASEBALL".

  • Household Travel Survery (2016)
    2016 Household Travel Survey Summary Report Prepared for the City of London by IBI Group July 11, 2018 IBI GROUP FINAL REPORT 2016 HOUSEHOLD TRAVEL SURVEY SUMMARY REPORT Prepared for the City of London Executive Summary The London Household Travel Survey was conducted in the fall of 2016 to provide a detailed picture of travel behaviour among residents of the City of London and the surrounding Census Metropolitan Area. The survey collected critical information about trip making, travel preferences and attitudes that are used to for the planning of road, transit, cyclist and pedestrian infrastructure and services. Previous versions of the household travel survey were conducted in 1987, 2002, and 2009. The 2016 survey was conducted primarily via a web-based computer interface and involved the collection of extensive travel and socio-economic data for 5,300 households in the City of London, representing approximately 3% of households. Additional targeted surveys of students attending Western University and Fanshawe College were also undertaken to ensure university/college students were adequately represented in the overall travel survey. The student survey ensured capture of those living in student residences and off-campus housing and obtained travel information for 1,600 post- secondary students. The number of surveys collected exceeded the quotas established at the outset of the project, meaning that the survey sample provides a robust and reliable picture of travel patterns among the City’s residents and non-resident students. The resulting data provide a strong evidence base for transportation policy, planning, and strategy. Survey Instrument The web-based survey instrument represents an emerging next generation approach to household surveys to address increasing survey bias in conventional telephone-based household surveys that does not adequately capture key segments of the population.

  • LONDON an Independent Downtown…
    LONDON an independent downtown… . Snap Shot of London A medium sized city in South-Western Ontario An economic base in transition from manufacturing to knowledge industries Two major educational institutions Three major hospital campuses A city with strong heritage features A growing downtown population “We find different solutions A progressive City Council that is and say…. ‘Well maybe we taking a long-term approach and is should try that.’” strongly committed to downtown revitalization London’s resurgent downtown is blessed with strong heritage features, contains the vast majority of the City’s office employment and has seen successive City Councils be a pioneering force in revitalization efforts. The City has also been highly progressive in tracking downtown performance and collecting data on a parcel level to help measure progress through its State of the Downtown Report. Yet, downtown London faces several challenges, such as the need for innovative methods to repurpose its heritage buildings, visible vacancies along its main shopping street, a perception of crime that deters some potential visitors, office vacancies, and few residents in the core. Downtown London continues to develop its own style, identity, and culture over a two decade period of of revitalization. 99 Downtown London Timeline 1840 - 2011 1840 - 1967 1840 – London incorporated as a town 1878 – University of Western 1853 – Railroad arrives in London, Ontario, now known simply as economic boom follows Western University, founded 1920 – Thomas Adams prepares the 1956 – Historic Market Hall is first official plan for the City of London demolished and replaced by market on first floor of parking structure 1958 – First major study focusing on downtown is prepared under the Federal Urban Renewal Program 1960 – Wellington Square opens downtown 1961 – City annexes 34 351 acres, growing from 8 019 acres to 42 550 1967 – City annexes 1 196 acres, population 162 184 acres to the East.
