Claire’s fancy-pants HISTORICAL FASHION MASTER POST

SIMCITY Neil wrote this essay for SIMCITY. Cities are not people. But, like people, cities have their own personalities: in some cases one city has many different personalities -- there are a dozen Londons, a crowd of different New Yorks. A city is a collection of lives and buildings, and it has identity and personality. Cities exist in location, and in time. There are good cities -- the ones that welcome you, that seem to care about you, that seem pleased you're in them. Some cities spread, like cancers or B-movie slime monsters, devouring all in their way, absorbing towns and villages, swallowing boroughs and hamlets, transmuting into boundless conurbations. Occasionally I idle time away by wondering what cities would be like, were they people. It's a foolish game: cities aren't people. Cities exist in location, and they exist in time. At present, cities stay where they are. For now cities sleep. But there are rumblings. Don't ever take a city for granted.
