Edward Thornton Hartman papers 1904-1943 1923-1943

http://hdl.handle.net/10079/fa/mssa.ms.0266

Professional correspondence and subject files maintained by Hartman in connection with his career. The correspondence relates chiefly to Hartman's work as state consultant for the Massachusetts Department of Public Welfare (1923-1929). Important correspondents are T.N. Carver, W.A. Griffin, Joseph W. Kelly, Joseph Lee, Benjamin C. Marsh, A.D.K. Shurtleff, and Edwards Albert Park. The major portion of the papers consists of topical files, principally on planning and on zoning, which was of particular interest to Hartman, who was active in the writing of zoning laws in twenty-eight states. The files, which contain printed matter, notes on legal decisions and practical problems, offer thorough documentation of all aspects of zoning in the urban environment. Twenty-five cities in Massachusetts are included in the planning section as part of a series of Master Community Surveys, 1912-1940.
