In this joyful new book, Monocle analyzes what makes a great city, whether you are looking for a new place to live or seeking help to improve your own. How do we create better cities – places that work for people of all ages and backgrounds? How do we design cities that provide the obvious essentials, like excellent transport links and good jobs, as well as the softer elements that truly enhance quality of life, from urban swimming pools to rooftop clubs? Since its founding in 2007, Monocle has been passionately committed to creating better living environments. Each year, it publishes a quality of life survey that names the 25 best cities to call home. Additionally, it has featured interviews with the best mayors, explored metropolises that prioritize pedestrians, and met the people creating the best parks, both small and large. Discover how you too can have a High Line and create the most desirable living spaces.
