The Urban Origins of Suburban Autonomy
Author: Richardson DilworthPublisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 9780674015319
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
Using the urbanized area that spreads across northern New Jersey and around New York City as a case study, this book presents a convincing explanation of metropolitan fragmentation—the process by which suburban communities remain as is or break off and form separate political entities. The process has important and deleterious consequences for a range of urban issues, including the weakening of public finance and school integration. The explanation centers on the independent effect of urban infrastructure, specifically sewers, roads, waterworks, gas, and electricity networks. The book argues that the development of such infrastructure in the late nineteenth century not only permitted cities to expand by annexing adjacent municipalities, but also further enhanced the ability of these suburban entities to remain or break away and form independent municipalities. The process was crucial in creating a proliferation of municipalities within metropolitan regions. The book thus shows that the roots of the urban crisis can be found in the interplay between technology, politics, and public works in the American city.

Amelia Earhart's Terraplane

Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
Amelia Earhart owned cars, planes and a home in the Hollywood hills, yet the least known of these was a 1932 Hudson in which she gave her step son George Putnam Jr. driving lessons. A gift of the Terraplane at an auto show in the depths of the 1929 Great Depression, proved to be just a promotional gimmick, but it is a car that she kept. While she may have gotten lost in her 1936 Lockheed Electra plane, her 1932 Terraplane is still here in California.
