This book uncovers creative planning and design strategies of nine U.S. towns as they rebuild to remain vibrant, equitable and viable in the face of metropolitan sprawl, population shifts, political division, and economic shortfalls. These nine projects show how the U.S. small town is unexpectedly progressive, experimental, urban and global.
