Saving America's Cities
A Tried and Proven Plan to Revive Stagnant and Decaying Cities Second Edition
Quote by Richard C. Longworth
"Many cities have a rich past. No one knows if many have a future"
Quote by David H. McDonald
"In the last six decades, no stagnant or decaying city has been globally or significantly saved - never"
Quote by David H. McDonald
"More and more, federal and state governments are growing their already out-of-control financial problems. Cities are on their own to sink or swim, now more than ever"
Quote by David H. McDonald
"Only two states in the nation have, over time, lost population. If the states are gaining population but the cities are losing, then it is the cities' fault"
Quote by David H. McDonald
"Occasionally a city will, usually by accident, 'back into' attempting growth in the right manner. It always works"
Quote by David H. McDonald
"Virtually no city has a workable vision of how to even achieve stability - let alone a return to vibrancy. This book presents such a vision and a clear path to beginning the process of stabilization and growth"
Quote by David H. McDonald
"Whatever is going to save your cities, it won't be government. Both political parties are largely trapped in the past, driven by a desire to protect old sacred cows"
