"Timely and important, a delightful, insightful, irreverent work . . . Should be required reading." --The Christian Science Monitor

Jeff Speck has dedicated his career to determining what makes cities thrive. And he has boiled it down to one key factor: walkability.
Making downtown into a walkable, viable community is the essential fix for the
typical American city; it is eminently achievable and its benefits are manifold. Walk-
able City--bursting with sharp observations and key insights into how urban change
happens--lays out a practical, necessary, and inspiring vision for how to make American
cities great again.
