"Indianapolis Recreation Survey" (1914) offers a detailed snapshot of recreational opportunities and needs in Indianapolis during the early 20th century. Conducted by the National Recreation Association and the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce, with significant contributions from Francis Reid North, this survey provides valuable insights into the social and urban landscape of a rapidly growing American city.
The study examines existing parks, playgrounds, and other recreational facilities, while also assessing the leisure activities of Indianapolis residents. It highlights the importance of organized recreation for community development and social well-being. The survey's findings and recommendations offer a historical perspective on the evolution of urban planning and recreational services in the United States, making it a relevant resource for researchers, urban planners, and anyone interested in the history of Indianapolis.
