ABOVE LEFT: Central Park provides rest and quietness in a natural surrounding. ABOVE: The Acts are the latest additions to downtown entertainment. BELOW: A good example of urban renewal within the city is the Zamias Building. For many Seniors, “Our Town” is a place to leave after graduation. Such, perhaps, is the wanderlust of youth. In fact, however, most of us will either remain in Johnstown or return here to make our homes and raise our families. And whatever its shortcomings, Johns- town remains one of the finest places in the country. Its 40,000 citizens have good employment opportunities, there is a great diversity of entertainment, and during the 1960's and up until our grad- uation—Johnstown has enjoyed the dis- tinction of having the nation’s lowest crime rate in thirteen of fourteen years. This, then, is our town—as it was in the spring and summer of 1976. 13

One of the newer restaurants is the Act III Diner on Market and Locust Streets. Johnstown was incorporated as a city in 1889, and is named for its founder, Joseph Schantz, whose statue is a focal point of the downtown Central Park. Many of the buildings in the downtown area are relatively new, as city leaders have tried to keep urban blight from infecting the city. As we graduate, it seems the area’s retail center may be leaving the downtown area and moving into Richland Township, the district's fastest growing community. If this hap- pens over the years, downtown likely will become the financial and office center of the metropolitan area. ABOVE: The Sheraton Inn provides elegant lodging for visitors to Johns- town. LEFT: Our Inclined Plane is one of the steepest in the world. BELOW: The Senior Activities Center is the focal point for senior citizens. RIGHT: The center of city politics, City Hall.
