Description
Abstract from the distributor :
"Downtown" is the first history of what was once viewed as the heart of the American city. It tells the fascinating story of how downtown--and the way Americans thought about downtown--changed over time. By showing how business and property owners worked to promote the well-being of downtown, even at the expense of other parts of the city, this book gives a riveting account of spatial politics in urban America.
Robert M. Fogelson is a Professor of Urban Studies and History in the Department of Urban Studies and Planning at MIT.
