True Urbanism

Description:

"Mark Hinshaw has a proprosition for Americans: Come out of your bunker, throw open the gate, and meet the neighborhood. In this appeal, he introduces those who have already done just that and explains what cities can do to make true urbanism possible. He rejoices in the growing number of people rejecting sterile, paint-by-the-numbers subdivisions in favor of rich, vibrant, and unpredictable urban neighborhoods."--Jacket.
