Description
"Combination of animated drawings and aerial
photography illustrate the development of the Piedmont Crescent
covering the eleven counties from Gaston to Wake. The historical
sequence of geography, transportation and power (electricity, gas
and oil) with the resulting population and industrial development is
graphically shown. "What's next?" is the question asked as the need
for planning becomes evident. Local government, State government,
business and industry all need to work together to plan regionally
to provide water, sewage, clean air, beauty, education and
recreation." Description taken from the North Carolina Public
Library Film Service Catalog of 16mm films, 1972
edition.
