Market Urbanism

Liberalizing cities | From the bottom up

“Market Urbanism” refers to the synthesis of classical liberal economics and ethics (market), with an appreciation of the urban way of life and its benefits to society (urbanism). We advocate for the emergence of bottom up solutions to urban issues, as opposed to ones imposed from the top down.

Another week, another consolation link list

November 9, 2010 By Stephen Smith

Mortgage-interest tax deduction cuts on the table

October 27, 2010 By Stephen Smith

Urbanism doesn't get a lot of breaking news (that is, unless Eric Fidler's prediction pans out), but this might be an exception: the WSJ is reporting that Obama's (bipartisan?) deficit commission is considering cutting the mortgage-interest tax deduction.  The reports are all very speculative, but … [Read more...]
