"Today there is an increasing awareness that such physical and ‘scientific’approaches can only be part of the solution to urban problems. Urban crime, for instance, cannot be solved simply by physical control without reinforcing pride in the locality and mutual responsibilities, both in city centres and in residential neighbourhoods. It is also clear that cities will not become more ecologically sustainable if we do not address how people mix and connect, their motivations, and whether they ‘own’where they live and change their lifestyles appropriately. In short, what urban planners also need today is perhaps the creativity of artists working in a social context"
