"The collapse of the World Trade Center shattered windows across thestreet in Battery Park City, throwing the neighborhood into darkness and smothering homes in debris. Residents fled. In the months and years after they returned, they worked to restore their community. Until September 11, Battery Park City had been a secluded, wealthy enclave just west Wall Street, one with all the opulenceof the surrounding corporateheadquarters yet with a gated, suburban feel. After the towers fell itbecame the most visible neighborhood in New York. This ethnography of an elite planned community nearthe heart of New York City's financial district examines both the struggles and shortcomings of oneof the city's wealthiest neighborhoods. In doing so, September 12 discovers the vibrant exclusivitythat makes Battery Park City an unmatched place to live for the few who can gain entry. Focusing onboth the global forces that shape local landscapes and the exclusion that segregates American urbandevelopment, Smithsimon shows the tensions at work as the neighborhood's residents mobilized to influence reconstruction plans. September 12 reveals previously unseen conflicts over the redevelopmentof Lower Manhattan, providing a new understanding of the ongoing, reciprocal relationship between social conflicts and the spaces they both inhabit and create"--Provided by publisher.
