City Journal
Their Summer '05 edition is out. I don't read fast enough to offer highlights, but this article on New York City's attempted "rebuilding" caught my attention. After 9/11, Steven Malanga writes:
another New York also emerged--a city of victims wallowing in grief over the attacks and urging that we should turn lower Manhattan into a gigantic permanent memorial or cultural wonderland, an idea supported even by Mayor Giuliani in one of his few wrongheaded moments. Anti-development groups seized on this emerging culture of grief to press a case against a dynamic rebuilding program, suggesting that it was not only undesirable but probably not feasible, since the attack had permanently crippled the city's economy. Brushing aside the vibrant, private-sector revival that had just taken place downtown, they advocated a raft of government-managed and -financed non-building alternatives for the World Trade Center and downtown in general.
This is a fantastic look at what's gone wrong in New York City for the last 4 years.
