The authors begin with a broad review of the history of Bushwick and Brooklyn, from before the earliest European settlements of the 1600s, through the 18th and 19th centuries and up the 1960s. Chapter Two begins by tracing the steep decline of the community, which culminated in catastrophic fires and looting in the wake of New York?s electrical blackout of 1977, and goes on to describe the beginnings of urban planning and renewal efforts which launched the recovery of Bushwick in the 1980s to early 2000s. Chapter Three steps back from the immediacy of the community to discuss urban change from a theoretical perspective. The authors outline advances in ?sustainable urban planning?, and describe how these apply to Bushwick and the wider Brooklyn community. Chapter Four offers a detailed examination of the intent and function of New York?s community board planning system, known as the Charter 197-a program. In Chapter Five the authors examine the 197-a planning process and its application in the areas of Bushwick, Williamsburg and Greenpoint in Northeast Brooklyn; Brooklyn Downtown and in Southeast Brooklyn including Coney Island.  The following chapter examines a number of innovative Bushwick high schools that offer practical experience in urban planning. Drawing the urban planning experiences together, the book concludes with a look at future directions in city renewal. Emphasis here is placed on ?sustainable urban planning? and the lessons to be learned from the experience of Bushwick and Brooklyn. The specifics of urban planning and renewal are illustrated with tables and figures. The details of planning are informed by an overarching sense of history, beginning with the dedication of the book to the memory of six Universalist writers associated with New York: Henry Thoreau, Helena Blavatsky, Henry George, Henry Miller, Arthur Miller and Walt Whitman. A rich trove of historical materials, ranging from family sketches to school rosters to rarely seen photographs, helps to keep the survey and analysis of urban planning grounded in the lives of Bushwick?s residents, past, present and future. 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aRegional planning 606 $aUrban planning 606 $aArchitecture 606 $aEmigration and immigration 606 $aPhysical geography 606 $aCity planning 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 606 $aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15000 606 $aCities, Countries, Regions$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/K14000 606 $aMigration$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X24000 606 $aPhysical Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J16000 606 $aUrbanism$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/K18006 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 0$aRegional planning. 615 0$aUrban planning. 615 0$aArchitecture. 615 0$aEmigration and immigration. 615 0$aPhysical geography. 615 0$aCity planning. 615 14$aSustainable Development. 615 24$aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning. 615 24$aCities, Countries, Regions. 615 24$aMigration. 615 24$aPhysical Geography. 615 24$aUrbanism. 676 $a304.8 676 $a307.34160974723 676 $a333.7 676 $a338.927 700 $aRauscher$b Raymond Charles$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01058686 702 $aMomtaz$b Salim$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298366003321 996 $aBrooklyn?s Bushwick - Urban Renewal in New York, USA$92516433 997 $aUNINA
