Rexford Guy Tugwell was the founder and Administrator of the program. Frederick Bigger, as the head planner, lead a team of planners which developed the new town. The planners were influenced by three planning theories: Ebenezer Howard’s Garden City, Clarence Stein’s Radburn, and Clarence Perry’s Neighborhood Unit Idea. This study examines how these three theories were used by Tracy Augur, Frederick Bigger, Justin Hartzog, John Nolen, and Clarence Stein in the planning of Greenhills. Using historical methodology, the role of the planners is documented and explored. Greenhills is placed within the context of suburbanization, precursor model communities, and the Progressive Movement. 2005-07-14 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1116009695 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1116009695 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
