摘要
I had a fascinating discussion about Robert Moses and The Power Broker with Professor Kenneth T. Jackson.
He's the pre-eminent historian on NYC and author of Robert Moses and The Modern City: The Transformation of New York.
He answers:
- Why are we so much worse at building things today?
- Would NYC be like Detroit without the master builder?\
- Does it take a tyrant to stop NIMBY?
