Contemporary examples from Germany, Austria, and western Canada identify issues such as heritage preservation, design, class, and gentrification, making this book a clear argument for mixed use, mixed income housing communities. It is a useful resource for architects, planners, non-profit housing groups, municipalities, policy makers, and others involved in affordable housing.'
