Whither Warsaw
Whither Warsaw

Summary/Abstract: Warsaw emerged from the Nazi occupation as a physically destroyed city, followed by surviving the Soviet occupation for four decades. The people persevered, recreating a magnificent Old Town. The city is growing rapidly and catching up to the rest of Europe. It is also facing the infrastructure, urban sprawl, mass transit, pollution, and transportation issues of growing metropolis, without the regional planning and other land use planning tools available elsewhere as a result of its aversion to central planning. Its history provides a unique dynamism to study post-disaster planning.
