What reading level is City Improvement From the Artistic Standpoint. An Address book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We shall find it in what may be called supreme instances. This is perhaps our nearest approach to a defi-- nition of beauty; that it is a supreme instance of order, intuitively felt, instinctively appreciated." This is what we feel in the presence of the beautiful setting which I have just tried to describe and we are impressed almost beyond words by the beautiful order, harmony, balance and rhythm of the entire setting. The formality and similarity of some of its parts, far from being monotono...us, on the contrary give you an intense sense of repose notwithstanding the great variety of its parts and the continuous motion of the thousands of people and vehicles within sight.
In the old world the growth and development of cities was very gradual and coincident with the development of civilization and the advancement of art. The remodeling of cities was brought about by rather violent methods — sometimes by the necessity of rebuilding the cities that were devastated or ruined by the con^ quering hordes, at other times by the ambition of the conqueror to reproduce in his own land the wonders that he has seen abroad, and so we travel through the ages from Egypt to Greece, to Rome, to France, to Germany, to Spain and England and the rest of Europe.
