I am trying to get caught up on The Death and Life of Great American Cities by Jane Jacobs. I'm a chapter behind, so don't tell me what happens.
I stayed up until two last night reading The Death and Life of Great American Cities by Jane Jacobs. I was stuck on The High Cost of Free Parking last summer when everyone was reading the Jacobs, so I have some catching up to do.
Don't tell me what happens! I haven't read past the part where bars are good for neighborhoods. I haven't even checked Facebook for a week so no one will spoil the ending. My cousin is always revealing the endings. I didn't even have to read City of Quartz because she gave away every detail in real time. My mom does same thing.
I can't wait to find out what happens with the Lower Manhattan Expressway. Seriously, don't tell me! I'll never forgive you.
