Sun Sets on Culture of Congestion

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic or follow Market Urbanism on Twitter if you find this site interesting.

The New York Sun has decided to close up shop. To Market Urbanists, the greatest casualties are Sandy Ikeda’s blog, Culture of Congestion and Ed Glaeser’s articles. Sandy’s work has inspired me to read Jane Jacobs’ books (starting with The Death and Life of Great American Cities), and I plan to post some of my thoughts on what I’ve read so far. If you haven’t already, please check out the archives of Sandy’s and Ed’s writings.

Ed Glaeser has begun to write articles for the NY Times’ Economix blog. Hopefully, Culture of Congestion will rise again soon. I’ll keep you posted.
