Beskrivning
This volume traces the major decisions, events, programs, and personalities that transformed the city of Pittsburgh during its urban renewal project, which began in 1977. Roy Lubove demonstrates how the city showed united determination to attract high technology companies in an attempt to reverse the economic fallout from the decline of the local steel industry. Lubove also separates the successes from the failures, the good intentions from the actual results.

Recensioner i media

The book broadens our understanding of how late-twentieth-century American cities are adjusting to declining regional industries. It may serve as a model for additional analysis of the impact and direction of postindustrial economic forces and for evaluation of the important policy choices facing political, business, and cultural leaders.
