The Florence Plan 1968, showing map of residential segregation]]> This is a page from "the Florence Plan: The Plan for the Future Development of the Florence Urban Area." that shows residential segregation in Florence.

There was also a sizable population in South Florence, but this neighborhood was altered significantly due to urban renewal projects. Today, Dr. Hicks Blvd cuts through what was the South Florence neighborhood]]> 1968]]> segmap2.png]]>
