They call for a rethinking of US public policies across those areas and look closely at what may be achievable at federal, state, and local levels in light of both the constraints and opportunities inherent in today's political systems and economic realities. As demographic shifts change housing markets and climate change ushers in new ways of looking at settlement patterns, pressure for change in urban policy is growing. More and more policy makers are raising questions about the soundness of policies that squander our investment in urban housing, built environment, and infrastructure while continuing to support expansion of sprawling, auto-dependent development. Changing these policies is the central challenge facing US cities and metro regions, and those who manage them or plan their future. 000746366 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed March 1, 2016). 000746366 650_0 $$aCity planning$$xEnvironmental aspects. 000746366 650_0 $$aUrban renewal$$zCanada. 000746366 650_0 $$aUrban renewal$$zUnited States. 000746366 7001_ $$aMallach, Alan,$$eauthor. 000746366 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aTomalty, Ray.$$tAmerica's urban future : lessons from north of the border.$$dWashington, District of Columbia ; Covelo, [California] ; London, [England] : Island Press, c2015$$z9781610915960 000746366 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000746366 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.5822/978-1-61091-597-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000746366 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:746366$$pGLOBAL_SET 000746366 980__ $$aEBOOK 000746366 980__ $$aBIB 000746366 982__ $$aEbook 000746366 983__ $$aOnline 000746366 994__ $$a92$$bISE
