  The master plan, City of Los Angeles, September 1965

  Rare Books

  Compliation of plans and information that comprised the "master plan" of the City of Los Angeles as of September 1965. The materials fall into three categories: master plan elements that had been officially adopted; master plan elements that had been developed but never adopted, and other information pertinent to the preparation of additional master plan elements. Several sets of the master plan were created. The materials are assembled in a three-ring binder with city-wide elements followed by area-specific information and plans. Numbered text pages introduce each section followed by folded unnnumbered maps. City-wide elements include a topographical model of the City of Los Angeles, population projections, general land use plan, transportation, public facilities, utilities, renewal and fringe area studies. Specific area plans include Central City, Little Tokyo and El Pueblo de Los Angeles State Historical Monument, Exposition Park, San Fernando Valley, Sherman Way, Santa Monica Mountains, Mulholland Drive, Pacific Palisades and the San Pedro community. This set appears to be incomplete.
