Old quote of the day
I used to use this in my email .sig. It's relevant to the previous post.
"Even as cities in the United States and elsewhere seek to recharge their economic well-being by restoring (and typically, transforming for contemporary use) evocative buildings, public spaces, and neighborhoods, they also risk erasing the very features that had given these pieces of the urban physical environment their original distinction." -- Spirou, Costas & Larry Bennett. "Revamped Stadium...New neighborhood." Urban Affairs Review. v37:5, May 2002, 675-702.
