The ideal city, a utopia of sorts, has been the goal of America since its founding. First we immigrated to find freedom to thrive in the new world, then we moved west to find it on the open frontier, we left cities for the suburban utopia, and finally, we redeveloped our blighted urban cores to create it from within. With each period in our history, we have attempted to create the ideal mix of town and country, but author Alex Krieger ends his book City on a Hill which covers all this and more with a hope that this pursuit “should continue to lose luster.” Listen to the end to hear Alex’s response to why he wrapped up a book on our endless pursuit of this goal in this manner.
