Four views on a regional strategic revitalization plan linking the future of New Jersey's poorest city with that of its suburban neighbors. "There was a time when many residents in Camden's suburbs thought there was no need to do serious long-range or regional planning because they lived in municipalities that were completely developed or would never change....If we don't work on planning for the future now, we will miss the opportunity to shape our own destiny. If we don't have a plan for how to get to where we want to be in the future, we will never get there."
