Planning the Productive City focuses on the overlooked role of industry and industrial land in contemporary urban development. Bringing together detailed studies of over 25 cities in 14 countries (including the US, the UK, Canada, Italy, Germany, South Korea, and Türkiye), this comprehensive volume puts the diverse forms, geographies, and conflicts over urban industrial land and productive activities at the center of discussions around the future of cities. The chapters collectively reconsider the role of industry in the city, arguing that industry can play a critical role in promoting socially equitable, economically resilient, and climate-sensitive places. This edited volume is the first to comprehensively explore the challenges and opportunities of achieving these goals through planning the productive city. This book is essential for students, researchers, and professionals across the range of urban studies fields (geography, urban planning, architecture and urban design, urban economics, and urban politics).
