The City Beautiful Movement was a reform philosophy of American architecture and urban planning that flourished during the 1890s and 1900s, with the intent of introducing beautification and monumental grandeur in cities. The Chicago World’s Fair in 1893 (above) is often credited with ushering in the City Beautiful movement. Longview’s planners were under its influence, to our benefit!
