The issue delves on many thoughts regarding development of Indian cities in a discussion with K T Ravindran and Mohan Rao. While there is a need to forge ahead on a pace to re-infuse vibrant urban life in our crowded and polluted cities, at the same time, it is also important to take in account the aspirations of the population across the economic spectrum – those living in closed enclaves and gated communities, but also those living in resettlement colonies, low cost housings and slums, and everyone in between. Our cities need to be safe and secure across all ages as well - for our children and senior citizens and at the same time, be models of dynamism and vibrancy for our younger generation.

The issue also features landscape works in public realm including an urban park in Mumbai and a religious complex at Aliyar, Tamil Nadu.
