How did they get to be such sprawling conglomerations of lookalike subdivisions, megafreeways, and "big box" superstores surrounded by acres of parking lots? And why, most of all, don't they feel like real communities? These are the questions that Alex Marshall tackles in this hard-hitting, highly readable look at what makes cities work. Marshall argues that urban life has broken down because of our basic ignorance of the real forces that shape cities-transportation systems, industry and business, and political decision making. He explores how these forces have built four very different urban environments-the decentralized sprawl of California's Silicon Valley, the crowded streets of New York City's Jackson Heights neighborhood, the controlled growth of Portland, Oregon, and the stage-set facades of Disney's planned community, Celebration, Florida. To build better cities, Marshall asserts, we must understand and intelligently direct the forces that shape them. Without prescribing any one solution, he defines the key issues facing all concerned citizens who are trying to control urban sprawl and build real communities. His timely book will be important reading for a wide public and professional audience.Constructs series.City planningCities and townsGrowthSuburbsSocial psychologySocial participationCity planning.Cities and townsGrowth.Suburbs.Social psychology.Social participation.307.76Marshall Alex1959-1676988MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910827396303321How cities work4043516UNINA02207nam 2200457Ka 450 991016267320332120240912105833.11-62380-298-9(CKB)3710000001044320(BIP)055285787(BIP)042573222(ODN)ODN0001232597(MiAaPQ)EBC32336985(Au-PeEL)EBL32336985(EXLCZ)99371000000104432020130926d2013 uy 1engurcn|---|||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierBy the creek /Geoff Laughton1.20131 online resource1-62380-297-0 Soon-to-be high school junior David Harper hates his family's move to the country. There's nothing to do, and he misses his friends in the city. But he doesn't have a choice. His mother's job is in Mason County now, so David and his mom are too, and he has to make the best of it. At first, the only redeeming feature of David's new home is the swimming hole across the field from his house. Then David meets Benjamin Killinger, and suddenly life stops being so dull. Benjamin is Amish, and cooling off in the swimming hole is one of the few liberties he and his brothers enjoy. A friendship with an English boy is not—but that doesn't stop him and David from getting to know each other, as long as it's on the neutral ground by the creek. After David risks his life to save Benjamin's father, the boys' friendship is tolerated, then accepted. But before long, Benjamin's feelings for David grow beyond the platonic. Benjamin's family and the rest of the community will never allow a love like that, and a secret this big can't stay secret forever....Young Adult FictionOverDriveRomanceOverDriveFictionYoung Adult Fiction.Romance.YAF052020bisacshLaughton Geoff1243553MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910162673203321By the Creek3599208UNINA
