Downtown Toledo Associates Records, 1955-1978

After World War II, many American cities asked the question: What's next? These were difficult times and city planners were exploring new solutions to the problems of economic decline, neighborhood transition, and a mass exodus of middle class residents. This remarkable collection from the University of Toledo Libraries brings together dozens of documents from the city of Toledo, including primary documents related to urban renewal, transportation, parking, and related matters. There are records of the Downtown Toledo Associates, proposed freeway additions, and discussions of creating new intermodal transit centers. It is an intriguing collection and one that will be of great interest to urban historians, architects, and those with a penchant for the recent history of American cities.
