- Description:
- This collection consists of approximately 1,300 photographs from Lansing's City Planning Division, taken between 1912 and 1995, with the majority dating from the 1950s. It includes houses, street scenes, intersections, parking lots, signage, and some aerial views. The photographs were taken from the perspective of urban planning in most cases, so for example, a photograph of the Farm & Garden building is actually a view of cars in a parking lot behind it. Urban infrastructure seems to be the predominant purpose of the photographic documentation, which was sorted into volumes of approximately 100 images per volume, by Forest Parke Library and Archives staff.

- Description:
- Andrew Herod, professor of Geography at the University of Georgia, delivers a talk entitled, "Hammering against the reds: How that AFL-CIO fought communism in Latin America through urban planning." Herod talks about the relationship between the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO) and the U.S. government in Latin America throughout the 1960s and 1970s. Herod says that the U.S. government used local labor unions to promote capitalism and democracy and to stop the spread of communism. Herod also says that democratic and capitalistic ideology was encouraged by the construction of social spaces such as housing units, schools, community centers which promoted social interaction. He answers questions from the audience. The event is convened by John P. Beck, Michigan State University professor of Human Resources and Labor Relations.
