A rosy prediction
among the thorns
By Don Oakley
What with pollution, energy shortages and worries about
the depletion of natural resources, "progress" is a suspect
word these days: Rosy predictions about the future, once a
staple of the Sunday supplements, have been supplanted by
essays discussing just how bad things will be by the end of
the century.
Thus it has to be something of an event when a magazine
bucks the current pessimistic trend to take a confident look
at what life will be like in these United States in and around
the year 2000.
Engineering News-Record. McGraw-Hill’s construction
industry newsweekly, did just that recently in "Probing the
Future,” a mammoth, 538-page issue marking the publica-
tion’s 100th anniversary.
Not that there won’t be problems and challenges aplenty.
For instance, by 2000, 85 per cent of America s expected
population of 250 million will live in cities. This will mean
that 60 million more people will have to be accommodated in
urban centers in less than three decades. To meet this need,
almost 100 cities the size of San Francisco will have to be
constructed
But according to the skilled observers and reporters who
contributed to "Probing the Future,” the job can and will be
done. Some of their predictions:
Cities will become more high-rise, with numerous 100-sto-
ry and even 150- to 200-story buildings dotting the horizon.
Some structures will be built on stilts hundreds of feet above
plazas, and huge “A-frames” 400 to 500 feet high will span
highways, railroad yards and parks. Plazas, some at low
levels, some 100 stories up, will connect structures and pro-
vide open, parklike space as well as stability.
On the ground, vehicular and pedestrian traffic will have
their own levels, with theaters, shops and restaurants. High-
rise buildings will be self-contained communities housing
populations of 25,000 (the size of Philadelphia in 1776) and in-
corporating all services and conveniences as well as
employment.
Private housing will look pretty much the way it does now,
but the single family house on its own plot will give way to
row houses built about a commonly held open space. Facto-
ry-produced utility service cores will incorporate kitchen,
laundry and heating and cooling plants in prefab units.
Near-future public transportation will be an elaboration of
the best that exists today, with high-speed intercity trains
the most likely development. Personal rapid transit systems
will be in use before 2000, but the intercontinental rocket, the
personal helicopter, the automated highway and gravity
vacuum tube travel won’t be.
Lumber will be extremely scarce in the 21st century, and
efforts will be made to increase forest productivity through
fertilization to bring trees to maturity in months rather than
years. Concrete will be improved so that it will be tem-
perature- and chemical-resistant, high in tensile strength,
self-curing and flexible. Glass will be 10 times stronger and
plastics will find new structural applications.
Robots will replace men in dangerous jobs, and today’s
computers will be replaced by thinking units that will “talk”
with designers and make suggestions. Building tradesmen
could be making as much as $60 an hour, while enjoying
greatly increased benefits and reduced working hours.
All in all, the year 2000 sounds like a great place to visit,
though many old-timers who don’t expect to make it may be
just as glad they won’t have to live there. Still, it’s a refresh-
ing departure to read some hopeful predictions for a change
instead of the usual gloom and doom.

As you consider the upcoming Free Blood Pressure Clinic, remember this:
You may have high blood pressure-a disease that makes you a vulnerable
target for stroke, kidney disease and heart failure--and not even know it.
Half the estimated 30 million people in America with high blood pressure
don't even know they have it.
Here are the facts:
*Hypertension is the primary cause of 60,000 deaths each year.
*Hypertension is the most important predisposing factor in coronary dis-
ease and stroke accounts for more than 50% of the deaths each year.
*Hypertension costs the country at least $5 billion per year in economic
loss resulting from death, disability and related disease among people under
65.
Fine idea- that Clinic! Don't you think?
