Great American Cities Past and Present

Great American Cities Past and Present

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Sapp, Rick / Solomon, Brian, PUBLISHER: Firefly Books, The stunning history of the transformation of America's great cities. "Great American Cities Before and After" is a fascinating collection of 250 large-format photographs and commentary that illustrates the dramatic changes in America's urban landscape over the last century. The images clearly show the remarkable development of such cities as Chicago, New York and Los Angeles, as they went from flourishing cities to vibrant metropolises of international significance. Each left-hand page in the book shows a cityscape -- some are skylines, others are street scenes -- as it was or even 100 years ago, and the facing page shows the same location as it looks today. Each visual comparison tells a compelling story, from economic busts and booms to waves of immigration to city planning gone wrong (or maybe right) to a total disregard for heritage architecture to the urban appetite for farmland. The book also chronicles the changes in styles of dress, consumerism, storefronts and public transit that accompanied the transformations. Detailed captions describe changes such as: Technological advances that raised skylines to new heights Urban ghettoization and regeneration The casualties of fires, earthquakes and tornadoes The cultural evolution of neighborhoods The best and worst of American architecture Maps also include locator keys that highlight features and buildings within the photographs. From skyline to street level, "Great American Cities Before and After" gives readers a thought-provoking perspective on America's cities.

The Form of Cities: Political Economy and Urban Design

The Form of Cities: Political Economy and Urban Design

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Cuthbert, Alexander, PUBLISHER: Blackwell Publishers, "The Form of Cities "offers readers a considered theoretical introduction to the art of designing cities. Demonstrates that cities are replete with symbolic values, collective memory, association and conflict. Proposes a new theoretical understanding of urban design, based in political economy. Demonstrates different ways of conceptualising the city, whether through aesthetics or the prism of gender, for example. Written in an engaging and jargon-free style, but retains a sophisticated interpretative edge. Complements "Designing Cities" by the same author (Blackwell, ).

Medieval Cities: Their Origins and the Revival of Trade

Medieval Cities: Their Origins and the Revival of Trade

Nearly a century after it was first published in ,Medieval Cities remains one of the most provocative works of medieval history ever written. Here,Henri Pirenne argues that it was not the invasion of the Germanic tribes that destroyed the civilization of antiquity,but rather the closing of Mediterranean trade by Arab conquest in the seventh century. The consequent interruption of long-distance commerce accelerated the decline of the ancient cities of Europe. Pirenne challenges conventio
