Summary:

Abstract:

Good cultural planning, like good city planning, must be good economic planning. We know that cultural activity - be it a street arts festival or a Lincoln Center - can bring life and bustle to its surroundings. We have seen in many cities that the arts can stimulate business and create jobs - they can fill cafes and restaurants, attract new stores and perhaps even tourists and tourist hotels. But we cannot always count on it. We must be sure. (p. 142)
