It seems to me that in order to truly know what to do with the city, we must start out by knowing why it's there in the first place. Somehow cities are so deeply rooted in humanity's history that we never get around to asking why we live in them.</p></div></div></div> Mon, 29 Oct 2007 04:55:24 +0000 Mathieu Helie 81 at http://localhost
