DISCOVERING THE FUTURE OF
GRANARY CORRIDOR The urge to preserve certain cities, or certain buildings and streets within them, has something in it of the instinct to preserve family records...[Cities] are live, changing things--not hard artifacts in need of petrification and calculated revision. Cities are never still; they resist efforts to make neat sense of them. We need to respect their rhythms and to recognize that the life of the city form must lie loosely somewhere between total control and total freedom of action.
