A brief intro
I'll try to make this as easy as possible. I am a writer interested in new urbanism, material culture, city planning, the history/theory of urban form, and social web theory. I really like thoughtful music and thoughtful film. [+]-

Alliance for Healthy Cities
This year, the American Public Health Association Conference had a strong dosage of information about cities, planning, design, and how public health is entwined in all of these disciplines.
