Street Value

Over the summer, our friends Rosten Woo and Damon Rich and their colleague Meredith TenHoor published their awesome book, Street Value: Shopping, Planning, and Politics at Fulton Mall. The book resonates with themes in Lasting Scars, especially in its documentation of how multiple generations of urban planners, city officials, and journalists have failed to see the value of the Fulton Street commercial district. Damon founded the Center for Urban Pedagogy in Brooklyn, of which Rosten was previously executive director.
