The Crisis in Powelton Village: A Report Sponsored by Powelton Neighbors
Cover

Description

Cover of the report commissioned by the Powelton Neighbors from Walter Thabit, a planner who was not a resident of the city. The report was intended to provide alternative solutions to Drexel's expansion plans while conceding the school needed to expand and highlighting the neighborhood's efforts to rehabilitate. Drexel largely ignored these suggestions.
