"In this sensitively written and richly documented history of the origins and accomplishments of the New York City Housing Partnership, Charles Orlebeke speaks to the resilience and future possibilities of cities, while making a compelling case for a more homeownership-driven national urban policy." (Michael A. Stegman Duncan MacRae '09 and Rebecca Kyle MacRae Professor of Public Policy University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Formerly Assistant Secretary for Policy Development and Research, HUD)
"This book offers important insight into how federal devolution will work out and how politicians, community groups, and business leaders learn to trust each other and leverage each other's resources to rescue the American city." (Philip L. Clay, Department of Urban Studies and Planning MIT)
"Orlebeke's narrative deftly weaves together the high-level political maneuvering with the hope and faith of residents looking for better homes to raise their families. In his final chapter, Orlebeke sets forth a refreshing paradigm for urban policy, based upon community development and the power of public/private partnerships, truly the best platform on which to build this country's urban revitalization." (Paul S. Grogan, President and CEO Local Initiatives Support)
