Will cities come back? If so, in what form? One lesson from the pandemic is that the most successful cities integrate residential, commercial, cultural and entertainment uses into their downtowns.

The challenge of urban planners, architects and developers is to respond to grassroots pressure for more livable cities that balance work, living and play.
