Album Info:
(DSC03557a) Sunflower (Helianthus annuus) ..... Burnham visited Baguio on December 21, 1904, with his associate Pierce Anderson, who was once a classmate of William Cameron Forbes at Harvard University. Soon after his visit, Burnham submitted his plans for Baguio to the Philippine Commission. This was enthusiastically accepted. However, the real father of Baguio, the man who realized Daniel Burnham’s Plan for the city, was William Cameron Forbes. Forbes was a real believer in the potential Baguio possessed to become a summer resort. From 1904-1909, Forbes served as a member of the Philippine Commission where he made many visits to Baguio and supervised the development of the summer resort. To entice more travelers to Baguio, Forbes encouraged the development of a public transport system that would shuttle visitors between Baguio and the lowland. This public transport system was known as the Benguet Auto Bus Line. (Taken from Heritage Conservation Society)
