This work explores New York's transit system as both fact and metaphor. Brooks traces the development of the subway from its inception as the newest and most efficient public transportation system to its decline as an overcrowded and dangerous part of city life. He explores films which have dramatized the dangers lurking underground, but also the improvements and ambitious programmes such as Music Underground, Poetry in Transit, and Arts-in-Transit, as keys to the city's renewal.

Summary:
Les écoles d’architecture dans leur valeur manifeste comme des lieux d’expérimentation pédagogique et des emblèmes de la création architecturale . Dans ces bâtiments où l’architecture s’enseigne et s’apprend, les multiples enjeux de la création architecturale se donnent à lire, à voir, à comprendre. Le fort investissement symbolique dont les écoles d’architecture font l’objet, tant de la part de l’État, initiateur de leur construction, que de leurs concepteurs et usagers, les hisse au rang de modèles ou de manifestes architecturaux. Leur histoire rejoint celle de l’architecture de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle.
