520 In the wake of recent failures in America^'s urbaninfrastructure, an emerging group of activist designers are calling on architects to rethink their relationship tothe city. For them, the future of the American city lies not in modernism^'s large-scale master plans or New Urbanism^'s nostalgic community planning. Instead, they favor working with the realities of urban space, finding hidden opportunities in what already exists in our cities;they eschew monolithic, top-down approaches. Fast-Forward Urbanism presents a mixture of essays, opinions, and design projects by well-known architects and theorists, including Stan Allen, Will Alsop, Lars Lerup, and Keller Easterling. Equal parts theory and practice, their ideas lay the groundwork for the next American metropolis. Fast-Forward Urbanism is a useful tool for designers as well asanyone working in the federal recovery effort, from policymakers to engineers to builders to planners. --Book Jacket
