Cities Without Ground
Maybe it's because I spend so much time exploring both the real city I live in and the fictional ones I've written about and read other peoples' writings about...but it strikes me that Cities Without Ground, this book on the networks of underground and elevated walking pathways established in Hong Kong - or (among other names) Xiānggǎng - might be worth a look-see. At the very least, perhaps a recommendation to our local public libraries might be in order?
