URBAN DESIGN HOPE FOR THIS WEB SITE

Well here I am again. I just have to ask my local readers for help. May I suggest that a painfully obvious and simple solution to a chronic city building industry problem: Why can’t one simply create a centralized Web site about urban affairs for a variety of weblogger writers?

Let’s imagine a basic yet tidy minimum list of expert specialties:

There are more public policy research institutions that on can chase a stick at! Therefore we should be able find quite a few political analysts who have a primary interest in local politics. Also we have heard and read the crispness from some legal minds on the process of government affairs and responsible law making.

There are quite a few economic institutions that are capable of offering some excellent thoughts and articles about our local affairs. Therefore we should be able to find a couple of economic analysts who are capable of sharing some of the numeric structures of our local communities.

There are some excellent an knowledgeable environmentalists drawn from the disciplines of biology, archeology, anthropology, sociology who have a sharp tongue and insatiable reading habits who can place into perspective some major concerns from which we will learn to accommodate our building with our natural environment. These talents should be charged to providing clarity of written thought about conservation and sensitive integration of the natural environment with man made things.

There are a multitude of service professionals in urban science, planning, education, engineering, architecture, transportation, landscape, geographic information systems, history, and art who comprehend the need for teamwork to contribute effectively to making good cities. Therefore again there are writers who can contribute their finely tuned perspective to improving the physical reality of our local environment.

There are a plethora of businessmen in agriculture, mining, banking, financing, manufacturing and assembly with material suppliers. These employers are skilled in taking risks and betting in effectively marketing their products. There experience of accomplishments is essential in invention and initiative to bettering technology for food, shelter and transportation. They have short words of wisdom that should be written and shared as to how they have as a group advanced the urban realm for our citizens.

This web page needs at least five good authors drawn from these vast fields of different specializations.

I have a hunch I know why this idea will ultimately succeed. It will be those who clearly understand the interdisciplinary need for communications. The need for writing, enumerating and illustrating the local geography we inhabit together has never been more critical.

People who should be the leaders in these matters should contribute toward this web site developemt. There impact should improve a collective and integrated leadership quality. Isn't the most popular three words sounding in America these days "United we stand?" Writing together on this web page should directly impact a better urban design future. Unique results are possible only in the context of such a written commitment to teamwork. My belief is strong that the right people will come forward and educate as all in this endeavor.

We are always both creating and being created by the world around us -- which includes, crucially, other fauna and flora in the same fix.

The challenge is to write something of merit. Please contact me if you are willing to support this purpose.
