Carl W. Almblad was born on August 16, 1924 in Chicago and spent his entire professional career as an urban planner. He pursued undergraduate studies in civil engineering at the Illinois Institute of Technology in the early 1940s and received a B.S. in architecture from the University of Illinois in 1950 and an M.S. in urban planning from Wayne State University in 1961.
In 1950 he began work with the Chicago Plan Commission as a student intern and was later promoted to associate planner. His responsibilities included conducting redevelopment studies, housing and economic studies, and regional studies.
Mr. Almblad left Chicago in 1953 to join the Detroit City Plan Commission where he worked over the next several years as a senior, principal and, finally, head city planner, responsible for urban renewal planning, master plan studies, coordination with neighborhood groups, model neighborhood plans, and city-wide historic and renewal studies. In 1971 he was appointed assistant director of the City Plan Commission.
In 1974, Mr. Almblad assumed leadership of the City of Detroit Community and Economic Development Department. As planning head of the department, his duties included regulating zoning uses, urban renewal planning, public works projects administration and responsibility for urban design, graphics, exhibits and films. He left in 1982 to become chief administrator of the Detroit Historic District Commission.
After his retirement in June of 1988, Mr. Almblad relocated to North Carolina, where he has become an avid watercolorist.
The papers of Carl W. Almblad contain correspondence, manuals, maps, reports, studies and printed material related to urban planning, urban renewal and historic district development in the cities of Chicago and Detroit.
