With generous support from the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts, the Architectural League of New York has created this Web-based project with the purpose of offering a range of well-organized materials and information on what is new and interesting in urbanism and architecture from different cities around the world. Currently the site offers perspectives on two "world cities": Caracas, Venezuela and Dhaka, Bangladesh. For each city, visitors can peruse an interview with a leading urban planner or architect who is intimately familiar with each conurbation, comb through a historical map that allows visitors to see the growth of each place, and make their way along a timeline of events. For those concerned with policy issues, the "Critical Issues" will be an important destination, along with the featured interviews with architects such as Jalal Ahmad and Francisco Bielsa.
