Thank You, Jane Jacobs

Thank you, Jane Jacobs, for teaching us that what makes a city is not "harmonious" homogeneousness, the brand new and very big, and narrowly futuristic thinking, but natural randomness, diverse surprises, small scale, and respect for context and real people.

Yes, thank Jane Jacobs, and thank you, sir. Glad to see you back and posting (if for just this one post). Hopefully, however, you've decided to emerge from hibernation.

I think the Times' obit is probably the most thorough of the tributes to Jacobs I've read since her death. I've thought about making printouts of the Times piece and tucking them into copies of Death and Life, which I would distribute to friends and family so that they too can read and, hopefully, come to appreciate Jacobs' seminal work. Or, given the cost-prohibitiveness of that plan, maybe I'll just loan out my copy after I've finished reading it. (I started awhile ago, it's just that I sometimes have difficulty staying focused on the task at hand, no matter how enthralling it is--and enthralling Death and Life is.)
 

...please where can I buy a unicorn?
