Big Bang Approach to Sustainable NYC?

[Update: Streetsblog has published the entire report as of May 2006. It should be interesting. Please read it and write in your comments.]

Many folks in the sustainable development, alternative transportation, environmental and Jane Jacobs Urbanist camps have been arguing for a range of incremental steps to put New York back on the right track after decades of car oriented development plans. And lately, while there has been little fanfare or public recognition of this, little things have been happening around the city, but this might be just a taste of what's to come if an article in the New York Observer is correct that the Administration is thinking of taking a more ambitious long range plan that puts all of these ideas into a complete package of sustainable development policy.
