Vancouver; located at the edge of a continent and the edge of national consciousness; has become the model for post-industrial urbanism. Does it deserve the attention? This provocative new book explores the links between the cityrsquo;s seductive natural setting; turbulent political history; planning and design culture; and the local and global forces that are reshaping Vancouverrsquo;s urban environment at a ferocious pace. Filled with historical and contemporary photographs and maps; Dream City offers compelling insight into how buildings; public spaces; extraordinary landscapes; and civic values have merged to form a uniquely 21st-century city.
