“Cities exist.
They are living, breathing with the lives of their residents, excited by visitors, and have personas that neither designer, planner, nor psychologist can fully discern. Within cities, there are images of the sublime with the commonplace, texture with object, historical regression with blind progress, the unpredictable with the predicted, and the spectacular with the anonymous. These competing notions are able to coexist, riding a wave of equilibrium.”
