{"product_id":"emerald-city-joseph-grosso-9781789045369","title":"Emerald City: How Capital Transformed New York","description":"Fresh, lively, accessible, Grosso brings the issues of gentrification, deindustrialization, homelessness, and militarized policing, so easily ignored, to the fore.Joseph Grosso traces the history of New York's transformation back into a gilded city, and asks what can be done about it. He examines New York's deindustrialization and the elite planning and design that followed; New York's financial crisis of the mid-1970s and the policy decisions made in its wake; New York's housing crisis; and the history of public housing across the United States. Making the history of gentrification and deindustrialization widely available and understood is a crucial tool in combating housing crises which continue to spread in cities around the world as more and more houses are left empty, to be used for global investments instead of for living.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joseph Grosso\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1789045363\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781789045369\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Zero Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.40d","brand":"Joseph Grosso","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43941926994175,"sku":"9781789045369","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_e4372106-bb98-41a1-961f-7cd41b22cf51.jpg?v=1681455763","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/emerald-city-joseph-grosso-9781789045369","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
