About Fry Bacon

In case you thought this was an epicurean blog, I regret to inform you that the title stems from a footnote in Jane Jacobs' The Death and Life of Great American Cities. If you don't believe me, turn to page 358.

The quote refers to the public discontent Edmund Bacon (Chief Planner in Philadelphia) faced when he supported building a new expressway.
