Excerpt from Planning Problems of Town, City and Region: Papers and Discussions at the Twenty-First National Conference on City Planning; Held at Buffalo and Niagara Falls, New York, May 20 to 23, 1929 John nolen, Cambridge, Massachusetts: Radburn has been called the town for the motor age but it seems to me much more than that. The motor, after all, is only a symbol of a mechanical age. Radburn is rather a town for the human needs of this age. It seeks quiet and repose. Its objective is efficiency, economy, better organization and beauty, a quality which we have often been rather loath to mention in these planning conferences.
