HOW TO SAVE URBAN AMERICA

This book, prepared by the Regional Plan Association, covers several of the critical issues facing the New York City metropolitan area. The issues covered are housing, transportation, environment, poverty, and cities and suburbs. To the extent that some of the proposed solutions are followed, they have implications for rapid transit, for commuter services, for the movement of building materials, and for the movement of fuels for utilities. To the extent that the proposed solutions may be adopted by other metropolitan areas, they may have implications for transportation far beyond New York.
