Recognizing the recurrent nature of our environmental preoccupations and their impact in shaping utopias, 49 Cities inscribes our time within a larger historical context, re-reading seminal projects and visionairy cities of the past through an ecological lens of the present that goes beyond their declared ideology to compare and contrast their hypothetical ecological footprint.
