Dive deep into the fundamentals of Strong Towns.
The housing market is trapped in a paradox: For housing to be a good investment, prices must continually rise, but to fulfill its role as shelter, prices must remain affordable. Coauthored by Charles Marohn and Daniel Herriges, this bestseller explains how the tension between investment and shelter led to the current housing crisis and how cities can restore balance to the market.
North America’s transportation system is broken, and most attempts to fix it only make it worse. In “Confessions of a Recovering Engineer,” Charles Marohn explains how the conventional approach to transportation puts communities in danger, increases debt and worsens transportation issues like congestion. He also shares how residents, local officials and engineers can work together to create real solutions.
Many American cities and towns are overwhelmed by debt. “Strong Towns” explains how this happened and lays out the core principles of the Strong Towns movement, empowering readers to take control of their communities’ futures.
