Issue 07: Kids and cities
January 2005
The seventh issue aims to highlight the residents of the next American cities: children. Is walking to school a thing of the past? Are private play centers the answer? How do we get kids out of the inner city? This issue also includes a variety of responses and paradigms to further develop the creative class debate in a dozen cities and reviews of the latest works by David Brooks, Andrew Wiese, Owen Fiss, and Howard Husock.
