Awesomeness: Two Primers

I post a lot here about my love of cities, and my concomitant distaste for sprawl.  For a concise and comprehensive overview of What’s Wrong With Sprawl – covering, in several succinct paragraphs, the economic and policy decisions and ramifications that come from our over-suburbanized nation – give this fantastic post a read.  Even the comments are worth checking out!

 

Another thing I love?  Libraries.  They are everything that is right in the world, as NPR’s Linda Holmes – pop-culture-obsessive, library-novice – discovers and describes in this post.  Makes me want to go to a library RIGHT NOW.

 

Libraries and cities: two of humanity’s greatest achievements.  It’s never wrong to give them their due.
