Pick 1 of the following options to address. Option 1: How to Kill a CityConsider the arguments about gentrification in How to Kill a City by Peter Moskowitz. Now that you have spent most of a semester learning about how to develop a city economically and how to run a city administratively. Do the activities that we’ve discussed this semester (be specific) ultimately set the stage for building a city or do they set the stage for “killing” it?Option 2: Walkable CityPart A: Application of Walkability PrinciplesSpeck outlines several principles and strategies for making cities more walkable. Choose two of these principles and discuss how they can be implemented in a small American city like Joplin. What challenges might urban planners face when applying these principles, and how can they be overcome?Part B: Critical Evaluation of Speck’s VisionWhile Speck’s vision of a walkable city is compelling, it may not be feasible for all cities or neighborhoods. Critically evaluate the potential drawbacks or limitations of Speck’s ideas. Are there any specific contexts or types of urban environments where his approach might not be as effective or applicable?
