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.

Seeing Pittsburgh Project
I might have stumbled upon this blog before, but it would seem to be in the same vein as OMGPittsburgh. Any of you social media types involved in the Seeing Pittsburgh Project?
I don't know if I'm a social media type, but I read this blog and I submitted a bunch of Photos of Lawrenceville. Like 50.
ReplyDelete2 (of the KSWA) made it to the book and nearly all were on rotating display at the gallery.
