leaders must begin the long and difficult process of rebuilding--and
perhaps reconfiguring--elements of New York's core economic
infrastructure.

Times"

Speakers include: Bob Fitch, Journalist and author of "The Assassination of
New York"; Joel Kotkin, Senior Fellow, Center for an Urban Future, and author

Landscape"; Errol Louis, Assistant Professor, Pratt University and consultant
on the Fulton Street Revitalization Project; Fred Siegel, Professor, Cooper
Union and author of "The Future Once Happened Here: New York, D.C., L.A. and
the Fate of America's Big Cities."

The event will take place in the Wolff Conference Room (Room 242), 65
Fifth Avenue (between 13th and 14th Streets) from 10AM to 12PM.  Space
