Title: New York for sale
Description: "In New York for Sale, Tom Angotti tells some of the stories of community planning in New York City: how activists moved beyond simple protests and began to formulate community plans to protect neighborhoods against urban renewal, real estate mega-projects, gentrification, and environmental hazards. Angotti, both observer of and longtime participant in New York community planning, focuses on the close relationships among community planning, political strategy, and control over land. New York for Sale teaches the lesson that community plans can challenge market-driven development even in global cities with powerful real estate industries."--BOOK JACKET.
