I've only skimmed at this point as it's a lengthy PDF, but this looks like it'll be an enjoyable read - lots and lots of really interesting ideas and concepts from the last few centuries. To be clear, it's not about the future of cities, rather, as per the title, the <i>history</i> of the future of cities - i.e. what can we learn from where we previously thought we might be going?
More info on the project that produced this (and links to other similar resources) at <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/future-of-cities" rel="nofollow">https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/future-of-cities</a><p>No obvious word (though I only had a quick scan) if nicely printed copies are likely to be available.
Looks like a fun read. I did a search, and it looks like there was no mention of the EPCOT project[1]. I would have enjoyed the authors' take on the subject.<p>[1]<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPCOT_(concept)" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPCOT_(concept)</a>
