David Sucher... Seattle, Washington
author...CITY COMFORTS: How to Build an Urban Village
ISBN #  0-9642680-0-0
============================================================
'City comforts' are the small and seemingly minor details that makes city
life pleasant. In over 210 photos and sketches CITY COMFORTS shows a wide
range of them. CITY COMFORTS tells us how to look at the city as a series
of details to create an 'urban village,' a place where you can walk to the
grocery and where they know your name, a place where neighbors recognize
each other and smile hello but where the economy is diverse and the
opportunities bountiful.
