MinnPost - Cityscape: Recession recovery: Urbanist Richard Florida says it will mean huge changes in how we live

Click title to quick over of a new book by Richard Florida on his forecast of future urban life.  I just ordered it from Amazon and it is resting in my Kindle, which I will read during my summer travels.  What I think it will talk about is the need to pare down on transportation and housing costs - we will do this by reducing commuting distances, encouraging redevelopment of urban areas along railways and other mass transit corridors.  Where have we heard this before?  I think right here.
