520 |a "In The Transformative City, Wilbur C. Rich examines the intersection of infrastructure policies, civic boosterism, and the changing nature of American cities to illustrate the uniqueness of Charlotte, North Carolina. Rich explores the ways in which the development and success of Charlotte Douglas International Airport has in turn led to development in the city itself, including the growth of both the banking and political sectors. Rich also examines the role the federal government had in airport development, banking and race relation reforms. The Transformative City traces the economic transformation of Charlotte as a city and its airport as an agent of change"--  |c Provided by publisher
