a park ..... a park
which will use
beauty as a
competitive
advantage to
attract wealth,
talent and
investment”

16. 7. Keep it green
Long at war with nature,
many cities have improved
their environmental records,
but they can do better. They
also must be more resilient,
a requirement illustrated
dramatically by recent
natural disasters from ice
storms to hurricanes.

17. 10. Be family friendly
The resurgence of cities is driven in part by
their attractiveness to young singles as well
as empty-nesters. But too many places are
on their way to becoming childless. Great
cities have decent schools, safe streets,
good jobs and affordable housing, all of
which should make them friendly to
families, be they gay or straight, rich or
poor, or from any ethnic or racial group.
