PINEDALE: another view
Terms lake ""urban sprawl-
tend to conjure up an image in
most people's minds. They ueu-
Blly start to picture a city like
Loa Angeles, spreading out relentlessly ever IN basin, ar the
Sen Francisco Bay Ares ss it
creeps slowty and surely out-
word.
But Fresno** No way*
Many people fail to realize
F resno is s rapidly growing urban
center in its oven riqht. Freeways are beginning to crisscross the city and mac.
have found themselves displaced
as their houses fall prey to the
f builders.
clut as the frecwavs force people to live elsewhere, so ifn they
brmq more people to the places
they serve. '
Fresno is nam lieginninq to feel
the full ■ >wth pat
tern. A quick look at bow the
city has spread over tb.
show that the tendency
has been for a northward spread,
in effect lesving the older areas
behind to decline anil fall into
relative disuse, as has ibc.fown-
town area.
As Fresno reaches its outermost northern limits, naturally
people I ivinq in surrotevfinq. communities arc interested. What
•ore for them1
This is a question the people
of Pinedale hsve been asking.
Pinrdale, a small community
on the nortttwcsl reaches of
Fresno, has found itself quite in
the middle of Fresno's urban
sprawl. They are now be inq asked
to react to the Woodward Park
Community Plan, a protection by
the Fresno Department of Planning and Inspection which calls
lor massive urlhxn development
north of Hertatton Ave. in the
11.3 square mile area surround-
tag Woodward Park.
Accord.nq to the City's publication of the Woodward Park
Plan, Pinedale 'was first developed as a mill town during tht-
1920*t. Today it is a pocket of
poverty containing about 840
nits, many of which are
classified as i let c nor sled.*'
Pictured here arc some of the
people of Pinedale at a town
mcetinq with representatives of
the Planning Department. At the
top of the pane is a view of the
land which would be developed if
the Woodward Park Plan is implemented. The advertisement is
for the developer who owns it
currently.
Will the Woodward Park Plan
benefit the citizens of Pinedale'1
The City of Fresno seems to
think so.
In a forthcoming issue we will ramifications. We will also see
explore this topic further, find. now Pinedale is trying to ohax.pt
ing out from some of the people that 'pocket of Povert '
of Pinedale bow they fed sbout tion put upon them by the Fresno
