Description
"A Brooklyn neighborhood once called "the beginning of the end of civilization" is where organizer Michael Gecan got his start. Hired by local congregations to help revive their community, he and his colleagues spend two decades wrestling with New York politicians in an impassioned effort against all odds to build three thousand new homes.". "From sometimes hilarious encounters with Ed Koch to complicated negotiations with Rudy Giuliani, Going Public tells the inside story of how cities really work, and how organized citizens can outmaneuver massive bureaucracies and generate major change."--BOOK JACKET.
