“...a period that overlaps with notions of the resurgence of America’s urban centers and the decline of its suburbs.”
- ghaff 8y agoThat sentence seems odd. NYC was about to go bankrupt during that period. Boston was losing population and employers into the 1990s. The current new urbanism renewal is mostly overstated and applies to a thin slice of demographics and locations but it’s also very recent—less than 20 years old for the most part.
