The new American city faces its regional future

"In The New American City Faces Its Regional Futures, local and national experts capture the dynamic issues surrounding the evolution of the city of Cleveland. How can it become a more livable community? How does it want to grow in the future? As the population moves farther and farther out from the established urban areas, consuming more and more land, what are the implications for the region as a whole? Many of the strategies for regional land use planning or tax-base sharing are controversial.

But they are the fundamental issues that Greater Cleveland and all metropolitan areas in America will have to address in the coming decades."--BOOK JACKET.
