Whether the "Big Apple", "The City That Never Sleeps", "Gotham",
or simply, "The City", New York City not only captures global geographic imaginations of urban America culture, it emerged as a
crossroads for individuals seeking a place to pursue their dreams
of a new life.
Behind this mystique is nearly 400 years of urban building that resulted in NYC becoming one of today's major cities of the world.
Topics in this class will focus upon: historic urban evolution, urban
growth and development, public transportation, urban design, architecture, spaces of memorial, economies of the city, tourism and
culture, social geographies, and urban sustainability.
