Fromthe acclaimed landscape designer, historian and author of American Eden, a lively, unique, and accessible cultural history of modern cities from suburbs, downtown districts, and exurban sprawl, to shopping malls and sustainable developments that allows us to view them through the planning, design, architects, and movements that inspired,created, and shaped them. Dream Cities explores our cities in a new way as expressions of ideas, often conflicting, about how we should live, work, play, make, buy, and believe. It tells the stories of the real architects and thinkers whose imagined cities became the blueprints for the world we live in. From the nineteenth century to today,what began as visionary concepts sometimes utopian, sometimes outlandish, always controversial were gradually adopted and constructed on a massive scale in cities around the world, from Dubai to Ulan Bator to London to Los Angeles.
