Abstract
My reasons for applying certain data-gathering techniques for design in St. Louisr Soulard area (see Figure l) stemmed from the following interests: 1) The freqeent failure of past renewal plans to transform political, economic, and social objectives into sound physical proposals which adjust well to local ecological systems 2) The increasing importance of data collection; analysis, storage, and retreval as a medium for changing institutions and elements cf society engaged in physical planning and renewal 3) Relationships between sociological and anthropological knowledge to physical environments, both existing and proposed. 4) The attractiveness of certain methods available to designers and decision-makers. 6) [sic] The physical uniqueness of Soulard in St. Louis.
