Abstrak On September 11, New York City irrevocably changed. Not just the historic financial district-all of the city, all of the boroughs. In After the World Trade Center, the eminent social critics Michael Sorkin and Sharon Zukin and seventeen of New York's best urbanists consider the attack and its aftermath in the broadest contex. They move outward from Ground to zero to Queens, and then outward again to the global conflicts that ultimately consume the sixteen-acre site. Providing a panoramic social portrait of the city at a new crossroads, the contributors reflect on Ney York's pre-eminent role as a financial, architectural, and cultural capital. But they also stress the falut lines beneath the last few years of boom growth, cracks that the dissaster has laid bare. Cumulatively, the essays offer a manifesto for a more democratic New York, one where voices from all the city'c community count, one that can check the power of big money and the city's traditional power brokers. But the current crisis is forcing us to take a hard look at more than the city's future-it has forced a reassessment of the past as well. Lower Manhattan, despite its reputation as the "capital of capital," has been plagued by calamities since the Dutch first settled After The World Trade Center probes this darker side of the city's history in depth. The city was repeteadly invaded in its first century and a half of existence, and much of it was razed during the revolution. And in 1920, a terroristbomb on Wall Street killed scores, making it the worst such attack in the nation's history up to that point. Each crisis produced a re-visioning and reconstraction -physical, political, and financial -and this catastrophe will do the same. But as the city emerges from the debris, contrary forces shaping its fture are at work. Developer jockey to control the right to rebuilt at Ground Zero.
