671290 I thought Marshall's argument to be, well, obvious. I suppose it might work as a quick-read introductory text, and I appreciated that he's come around to understand the New Urbanist critique of the way America builds cities -- a decade after reflexively rejecting it (and, in a roundabout way, introducing him to the subject).

I think he was the first to alert me to Jackson Heights' charms, though.
