That’s right, folks. Thanks to our friends at the Pittsburgh Community Reinvestment Group, 10,000 Friends of Pennsylvania, and the Regional Learning Network that convened in Youngstown earlier this year, a cohort of Clevelanders is making its way to the burgh on Friday.
We’ll talk housing, neighborhoods, and cross-pollination. Email abby@gluespace.org if you would like to join us in Pittsburgh at 3 PM.
In 1925, urban planner & historian Lewis Mumford described four “great tides” of migration that reflected the economic transformation of the US. Eight decades later, Robert Fishman (professor of architecture & urban planning at the University of Michigan) noted the large-scale return of people to global cities, labeling it the Fifth Migration. Today’s great tide, the Sixth Migration, is ebbing from global cities & towards a better quality of life.
