Our mission... to reflect a new narrative for 21st century cities and
regions. Leaving behind the 20th century pattern of cheap energy,
endless automobility, burgeoning suburbs, threatened inner cities. To
a challenge-packed 21st century: energy prices headed north, perilous
carbon emissions, deepening have-have not divisions, excruciating
social problems and deep challenges in education. But a time of
exciting promise, too.
