Book Synopsis Securing the Spectacular City by : Timothy A. Gibson
Book excerpt: Seattle's project of 'downtown revitalization' is often touted as a civic endeavour that serves the community as a whole. Gibson questions that assumption. He examines the trade-off between the gain produced by redevelopment and the loss of public space.
