Shape Of Things To Come, Chester Smolski
Shape Of Things To Come, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"The age-old saying is that the future belongs to the young. However, in terms of new potential markets, the business sector ought to consider changing demographics, in nation and state, because the future for the merchants of goods and services may very well be with the old."
Helping Communities Determine Development, Chester Smolski
Helping Communities Determine Development, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"The word uppermost in the minds of many communities these days is 'development,' a process that manifests itself on the land in the form of the built environment. Alarmed at the speed with which land is being used--and often abused--communities are being faced with touch decisions on how to cope with development, either by directing it, managing it or even stopping it."

Dope Is Death, Amilcar Shabazz

The version seen here is the 1988 pamphlet edition.

Invisible Industry, Visible Rewards, Chester Smolski
Invisible Industry, Visible Rewards, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"The week of May 17 to May 23 appeared to be an ordinary one, but it was singled out at the national level as National Tourism Week and, in the state, as Rhode Island Tourism Week, in case you did not know, and it was recognized by both the governor and by the mayor of Providence at recent luncheons. Well, ho-hum, another of the many proclamations and paper awards that so often come out of these offices that few give them much attention. But this one should cause Rhode Islanders to sit up and take notice."
Hitting The Untapped International Tourist Market, Chester Smolski
Hitting The Untapped International Tourist Market, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"It is the third-largest retailing operation in the nation with approximately five million employees. In New England it generates more than $620 million of state and local taxes annually. And in Rhode Island in 1986, it is estimated that $800 million was spent in this 'invisible industry.'"
Teaching Jobs, Housing And Implications Ready For Providence's Lap, Chester Smolski
Teaching Jobs, Housing And Implications Ready For Providence's Lap, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"For the first time in 15 years, Providence has good news for those seeking teaching positions. There will be about 70 new openings in the next year as a result of about 50 impending retirements this year and an expected increase in enrollments of more than 500 next year. The short-term impact of the new teaching positions will be to bring young teachers into the schools and, in the long term, effect a major impact in the community."

Mature Industrial Communities: The Realities Of Reindustrialization, John R. Mullin, Jeanne H. Armstrong
Landscape Architecture & Regional Planning Faculty Publication Series
This article analyzes the reindustrialization problems facing mature-industry communities in Massachusetts.

The range of these communities includes those which have recovered, are on their way to recovery, and are stable; those which are declining; and those whose status is indeterminate. A variety of factors are reviewed, including unionization; work-force characteristics; the relationship between small and large plants; the characteristics of local companies; location; financing; the availability of land; and the role of local planning. Finally, we present recommendations concerning local action and possible …
