Wacker’s Manual of the Plan of Chicago is a seminal work of urban planning, first published in 1909. It lays out the vision of the Plan of Chicago, a comprehensive plan for the design and development of the city in the early 20th century. The book provides a detailed overview of the plan, including its underlying principles, specific proposals for transportation, parks, and public spaces, and its broader vision for the future of the city. This is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of urban planning and the development of American cities.
