Message from the President

Redeveloping Our Cities for the Future

George W. McCarthy

October 2014, English

When I was a scholar at Cambridge University in the 1990s, my now-departed colleague and friend Wynne Godley would drop by on Sundays to take me to visit one of the ubiquitous medieval churches in the villages of East Anglia. Wynne frequently noted that “a church is more a process than a building. It unfolds […]

¿Podrá un cinturón verde reducir los eriales de Detroit?

Mark Skidmore

Will a Greenbelt Help to Shrink Detroit’s Wasteland?

Mark Skidmore

October 2014, English

It is difficult to overstate how ongoing population loss has devastated Detroit. Between 1900 and 1950, when the rise of U.S. automobile manufacturing made the city one of America’s premier industrial and cultural centers, the population spiked from 300,000 to 1.85 million.
