  • Ash Pile Or Steel City? H.L Mencken Helps Mold an Image Edward K.Muller
    Ash Pile or Steel City? H.L Mencken Helps Mold an Image Edward K.Muller order to spur economic growth and to combat unfavorable INpublicity, Pittsburgh has down through the years put forth positive images ofitselfas, for example, the Iron City,Steel City, Renaissance City,CityofChampions, and most recently, America's Most Livable City. Nevertheless, a negative image out of step with modern high-tech and Sunbelt trends persists today, de- tracting fromPittsburgh's efforts to regain momentum. The long history ofsuch images underscores their perceived importance to the fortunes of the city. Many things go into the creation and acceptance ofimages; but writers, often from competing cities, Edward K.Muller is Professor ofHistory at the University ofPittsburgh. He writes about the historical geography of American cities, and is an editor of The Atlas of Pennsylvania (Philadelphia, 1989). He is currently completing a book on Henry L. Mencken's writingsonthe American city.Dr.Muller wishes to thank NeilJordahl, head ofthe Humanities Department at the Pratt Free LibraryinBaltimore, for his and his staffs help with this project. Above: This view of the former Jones and Laughlin steel millvividlydepicts the scenery common along urban America's rail lines early this century. The Parkway now fillsthe center ofthis valleyinPittsburgh, and although the millwas demolished forahigh-tech research park (yet to be built),Second Avenue and the tracks remain. Pittsburgh History, Summer 1991 sometimes contribute to the formation and persistence priorities, the allocation ofresources, the disposition of of images even though that may not have been their land, and ultimately the differential success of various intent.

  • Section IV – Reference Year Population, Waste Generation, and Waste Reduction
    42 Section IV – Reference Year Population, Waste Generation, and Waste Reduction The purpose of this section is to list population projections, waste generation and waste reduction estimates for the reference year which is 2009, and to make any necessary adjustments to waste generation estimates. A. Reference Year Population and Residential/Commercial Waste Generation Population As mentioned previously, the planning period is 15 years from 2013 through 2027 with the reference year being 2009, the year prior to the commencement of drafting the Update. Table IV-1 presents the District’s population and generation rate for 2009. The reference year population was determined by interpreting the average population loss for each year between 2000 and 2010 as per the US Census that was released in 2011, and applying that amount to 2009. The District determined that the population in 2009 was 240,696. (2010 actual population as determined by US Census = 238,823, plus the average per/year loss of population between 2000 and 2010 = 1,873, added to 238,823 = 240,696). However, the Ohio EPA Draft comments corrected the 2009 population amount in accordance with Ohio Revised Code section 343.01 (A) (2) and the Format which states that the population of a district must be adjusted to include only municipalities in which a majority of the population resides in the SWMD. The adjusted population for 2009 is 239,675. This included adjusting the populations of four municipalities that have a majority of their population in other SWMD’s: Alliance City (Stark County), Columbiana City (Columbiana County), Salem City (Columbiana County), and Washingtonville Village (Columbiana County).

  • An Examination of the Elbert H. Gary and Michael Jackson Memorials
    10/23/2014 South Shore Journal Articles Category: Vol. 5, 2013 Public Memory in Gary, Indiana: An Examination of the Elbert H. Gary and Michael Jackson Memorials Written by Amalia Shanks-Meile and Elizabeth LaDuke Hits: 2701 The South Shore Journal, Vol. 5, 2013, pp. 45-67. The City Methodist Church, located in downtown Gary, Indiana, is the epitome of urban decay. What was once an impressive structure is now in ruins. The church’s current state mirrors the decline of the city itself. The massive gothic cathedral is riddled with holes in its walls and ceilings. It is filled with debris that has accumulated with time. The church was built in 1926 at a cost of one million dollars donated by the company that built Gary, the United States Steel Corporation, as well as the city’s namesake, Judge Elbert H. Gary. It seemed in 1926 that the church, just as the city of Gary itself, would permanently preserve the memory of Elbert Gary. This has not been the case. On a wall within the church a spray-painted message reads, “M.J.’s home.”[1] While it is unclear exactly what the message’s author meant, the appearance of Michael Jackson’s name anywhere in Gary, Indiana, is unsurprising. Jackson has become the figure synonymous with Gary, Indiana, rather than the man for whom the city was named.[2] http://www.southshorejournal.org/index.php/component/content/article/91-journals/vol-5-2013/132-public-memory-in-gary-indiana-an-examination-of-the-elbe… 1/17 10/23/2014 South Shore Journal Photo of City Methodist Church taken January 27, 2012, by Amalia Shanks-Meile.
