Cities - Images as a Tool of Discovery
(Camilo Jose Vergara)
"Vergara
acknowledges the importance of images to how we
understand and give
meaning to cities. His main
concern is the
disinvestment and physical decay that triggered
the need for
reinvestment. More specifically, he asks his readers
to
consider how the past and present figure into our
understandings of a city in decline and the importance
of looking within, rather than without, for the seeds
of renewal."
