The most dynamic cities have always been immersed in the critical innovations of their time.

All cities do face similar, significant trends in the future... most importantly global warming and climate change.

Cities are not static objects to be feared or admired, but are instead a living process that residents are changing all the time.

Every city has to deal with the problem of cars and public transport.

Places change all the time, and the type of people who live there change.

The world is always in movement.

Every city is either vibrant these days or is working on a plan to attain vibrancy soon. The reason is simple: a city isn't successful - isn't even a city, really - unless it can lay claim to being 'vibrant.'

In the city, you're always looking around, observing everything. In some neighborhoods, your life can depend on it. The details change constantly.

When you look at a city, you know, it looks so unique. You feel this kind of uniqueness, you know, and especially if you go from a big city to a small city or if you go from one country to another. Cities look very different, often. They even feel very different. You know, and they are, of course. They certainly are.

Neighborhoods change. In some ways, it's part of the beauty of New York City. It's in a constant state of flux.
