The Disappearing City By Frank Lloyd Wright William Farquahar Payson: New York; 1932 (1st edition) “The principles set forth in The Disappearing City–Wright’s advocacy of creating cities built to human scale, of planning the open spaces, making possible both community places and truly private places, of decentralizing the structure of our civilization–found their most thoughtful expression in his Broadacre City, an idea that grew from the 1932 book into a highly influential theory of city planning–and a radical critique, not only of the unhealthy, unwieldy American city but of his European contemporaries’ coldly rational urban warehouses for humans” (Fowler, Frank Lloyd Wright: Graphic Artist).
