Kotkin's writing more about suburbs and the decline of the urban bias experienced in Washington and Columbus, until recently.
Speaking of federal spending policies to expect in the near term: "You can also forget the hundreds of millions ascribed for 'smart growth' plans, which, in essence, seek to direct development and housing towards high-density urban areas."
The message included this for urbanists: "Cities need to break their reliance on outside help from a country that is, for the most part, not dense or urban. Future urban progress cannot rely on Washington’s largesse or diktats."
Yep.
