If the post-World War II era resulted in pervasive suburbanization, the post-recession age has born witness to a vibrant urban revival. Metropolitan areas in the Great Recession's aftermath are experiencing unprecedented population expansion, with growth rates surpassing that of suburban and rural areas for the first time since the 1920s. Yet in the face of twenty-first century urban renewal, urban leaders must confront uniquely twenty-first century challenges. Join Mayors Bill DeBlasio, Rahm Emanuel, Eric Garcetti, and Kasim Reed for an insightful discussion about the most pressing issues facing today's urban leaders, and how our great American cities can flourish in the twenty-first century and beyond.
