Foreword : Urban effects and the recent work of Martha Schwartz / Charles Waldheim -- Introduction : Curating urban evolution / Emily Waugh -- The performance of aesthetics : interview / with Elizabeth K. Meyer -- The softer side of sustainability / Martha Schwartz.

Summary: Cities are constantly evolving: growing, shrinking, diversifying, sprawling, and densifying. Each phase of evolution brings a unique set of challenges to urban areas in deciding how to remain vital and healthy for long-term sustainability. One of the most important questions facing urban centers today is how to keep people attracted to live in, invest in, and participate in the city. Recycling Spaces focuses on these questions broadly through conversations with experts in the fields of landscape, economics, and urbanism, and specifically through the work of world-renowned landscape architectural office, Martha Schwartz Partners.
