Description An account of the resource Despite all of the city planning and marketing of California City, the population did not increase at the rates hoped for by the investors. The marketing of California City was aimed at people in the greater Los Angeles area who wanted to escape the smog and congestion of the urban city and live in a completely planned and organized city. With gold, silver, and borax mines, as well as a military base, jobs were available. The advertising brochure shows how narrow the marketing focus was on a specific type of homebuyer. http://128.111.216.75/files/original/e659f2d3b1c92ddb651972ba102114ca.jpg 8be5f640547ddf35120b5be98ee07312 http://128.111.216.75/files/original/d2b8811c32bfe76c019e034e2f44b0f2.jpg 65278825606b9d27e1232924bb0f5859 http://128.111.216.75/files/original/22cd6bb156a09f3f09d7008f3b437195.jpg bd2fe2f1a4ee6988d590428696766e5f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Description An account of the resource In order to attract a wide variety and number of prospective home owners to this planned community, Smith and Williams designed a variety of neighborhood plans to fit different demographics. Some neighborhoods featured wide, park-like lots without fences, others were to be standard suburban lots with equal-sized lots, still others were 'atrium houses' which featured an interior courtyard, as well as townhomes, high rises, and senior living facilities. All would be within easy walking or driving distance of work, school, shopping, and recreational facilities.
