Soft Cover. Condition: Fine-. 219 pages, profusely illustrated. "Water was our first form of transporation and thus, for the most part, the growth of our communities has been at the mouth of navigable rivers, on bays, at key points along rivers and waterways, or on the ocean. But the developments of railroads in the 19th century expanded our geographic and commerce opportunities and triggered the cities shift away from their waterfronts. But over time, waterfronts have been rediscovered- and are now "hot" real estate. This book is about that trend, a trend that will restore vitality to many cities. This book attempts to define the issues that have led to this revitalization." FINE- SOFTCOVER. Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
