Happy Leap Year everyone! The crappiest month gets a whole day longer...Seriously, y'all, I hate February. Hooray for Weekend Reading, right?
ITEM ONE: TNAC becomes NAC, and kicks off a contest to come up with a tagline. The response so far has been El Lame-o, so go make some noise.
ITEM TWO: A massive wishlist for Hong Kong, Asia's Global City.
ITEM THREE: Pop City talks to Urban Design Associates honcho Don Carter about the eight things Pittsburgh needs to become a 21st Century City. It's about the Steel City, but many of Carter's points can be applied universally.
ITEM FOUR: Richard Florida frames urban development with an article about the Sex Pistols, and some interesting conversation follows.
ITEM FIVE: The Ground Floor explores the relationship between density and safety in urban areas.
ITEM SIX: Planetizen takes a look at Rotterdam's new "Blue Building" (seen in last week's Urbanffffinds).
ITEM SEVEN: A detailed written account of the soundscape of the boomtime Chinese city.
Have a fantabulous weekend, everyone! This blogger's headed home to Milwaukee for the weekend.
