Biographical Note
Materials in this collection relate to the Broadway Project and the Broadway Coalition.
When the City of Tucson began discussion on widening Broadway, many citizens were
concerned about how this would impact local businesses, transportation, sidewalks, and
the overall 'feel' of the neighboring establishments and neighborhoods. A group of local
activists began working on alternative plans, met with the Mayor and City Council, and
continued to say "no" to the proposed widening of the road.
