A city's infrastructure influences the daily life of residents,
neighborhoods, and businesses. But uniting the hard infrastructure
of roads and bridges with the soft infrastructure of parks and
public art creates significant political challenges. Planners at
all stages must work at an intersection of public policy, markets,
and aesthetics--while also accounting for how a project will work
in both the present and the future. The latest volume in the Urban
Agenda series looks at pressing infrastructure issues discussed at
the 2017 UIC Urban Forum. Topics include: competing notions of the
infrastructure ideal; what previous large infrastructure programs
can teach the Trump Administration; how infrastructure influences
city design; the architecture of the cities of tomorrow; who
benefits from infrastructure improvements; and evaluations of
projects like the Chicago Riverwalk and grassroots efforts to
reclaim neighborhood parks from gangs. Contributors: Philip Ashton,
Beverly S. Bunch, Bill Burton, Charles Hoch, Sean Lally, and
Sanjeev Vidyarthi
