From Denver to Dubai and Back
Think Nashville, Austin, and NOLA are America's music cities? Think again — Planning tells how Denver and other towns are embracing music as a driver of growth and development. Then it's off to Dubai for a planner's view of a complicated desert metropolis facing opportunities and challenges galore. Back in the U.S., Planning heads to East Market Street in Greensboro, North Carolina, where APA's Community Planning Assistance Team program got started in 1995.
