As a city planner, I found "Building the Modern Metropolis" to be quite inspiring. The perspective on how cities transformed up until 1960 is enlightening. I’d recommend it to anyone studying urban environments or history at all.

A Deep Dive into Modern Metropolises
This book is a fascinating read! It really breaks down how metropolises evolved from 1870 to 1960. The illustrations are stunning, and the insights are really thought-provoking. I bought it for my urban planning class, and it’s become a favorite among my classmates.

Beautiful illustrations, engaging content!
Just finished reading this and loved the blend of history with gorgeous visuals. The timeline from 1870 to 1960 really helps frame the context of modern cities. I got it for my architecture-savvy friend, and she can't put it down either!

Not what I expected
I thought this book would go deeper into architectural styles but instead, it focused more on social aspects. I appreciate the theme, but I had a specific interest in design. Might be good for others, just not what I was looking for!

Good but lacks some details
I enjoyed the content of this book on urban development, but I wish it had more case studies. It covers the basics well, but I was expecting deeper analysis on certain cities. Still, it's a solid read for anyone interested in city planning.
