New report: Making Sense of the New Urban Science

Dr. Anthony Townsend, Senior Researcher at the NYU Rudin Center, has released a new report, "Making Sense of the New Urban Science."

He writes, "The world’s leading universities have embarked on a building boom for urban research. What does it mean for the future of cities?"

"If present trends continue, by 2030, new urban science institutions could connect thousands of researchers and students, and represent more than $2.5 billion in current and future investment."
