hi, join, as in cut off from november, the 30th to december, the 18th booked your package now at cadillac always dot com. lu i'm marianne demising on a quick look at the main stories we're covering now. the u. s. envoy for iran, a saying washington is ready to meet with toronto over its nuclear activity. well, pounds have been shuttling between the 2 talks in vienna aid that salvaging the historic deal. but robert malley told al jazeera that direct discussions of the best solution to such a complicated issue. we're prepared to meet with them face to face. we think it's far superior to indirect negotiations when we're dealing with something this complex. with so much more so much mistrust with so much potential for misunderstanding. so we've said,

we'll meet at any time in any place. they're the ones who are not prepared to do it for their own reasons. we think it's a mistake. you, as president joe biden has held a phone call with his ukranian counterpart. not him. is lensky in a show of support over the build up of russian troops along the border to lead a spoke for around 90 minutes, where the white house, where the white house as the biden conveyed his support for you, came re crane sovereignty and territorial integrity. lensky says they discussed ways to resolve the conflict in easton ukraine where government forces a fighting russian back separatists rushes, amass tens of thousands of troops near the border, but denies it preparing to invade its neighbour. well, health organizations vaccine advisory panel is saying that people with underlying health issues or compromised immune systems, should get a boost, a dose of the corona, virus vaccine. but at the same time, there's concern about how it could affect people who have not been vaccinated at all. more than half of all people in the well have now received, at least one dose bought. that falls to just over 6 in every 100 people in poor

countries. many nations are expanding their roll out of 3rd short was due to concerns over the new omicron variant early day to suggest that vaccine efficacy declines off to some time, especially in older people. investigators have recovered the flight data recorded from the wreckage of a helicopter, carrying the chief of india's armed forces. people have been paying their respects to general beeping wrought, his wife and 11 others who killed the lone survivor of the crash in a critical condition and hospital. and his defense minister says the ashcroft did not send a distress. cool before coming down and the southern state of tom will not do al jazeera correspond, it now continues. brought me back after that with the news hour at $2100.00 g m t. i'll see you then the

eye sheet and the sheets such a call for the for and as somebody who's on their own, you can get this in a sense of loneliness, but also a sense of being able to not be distracted by anything else. apart from what you see, ah, ah, and you can feel the hairs on the back of your neck standing when you reach the top of that building and get a great view of the city. and you know, the timeline is going to help you achieve that by creating that sense of hyper reality i ah, oh, new york, the time photographers,

and concerning architecture of photography, paradise. every way you go, there's a shop i use it is divided opinion more than new york. towering celebration of identity for some others, including one of europe's greatest mother and architect like a boucher, a beautiful catastrophe of elite spies, soaring above the pole. a new york didn't give the skyscraper 22 square miles to build on. it was always going to be a vertical city. mm. yeah . do you think change the face of the modern construction? the invention of steel framed buildings, which meant that a lower wall no longer needed to bear the weight of the walls above and safer

elevators. 6 stories had been the practical limit of most buildings prior to the 980. i'm a necessity of trudging up 6 flights of stairs made the upper reaches home of the pole. the invention of the elevator inverted this hierarchy. from now on, it will be the rich who live to the top. i'm for new york delete. the sky really was the limit. oh, for me, new york created, but we imagined margin metropolis to be the the new york skyline is what new cities around the world aspired to whether consciously or unconsciously. ah, when america's enemies wanted to attack the country, they chose to attack the new york skyline. specifically its tallest building.

013 years later, the success of one world trade center is nearing completion. a. the architect chosen in a public boat to come up with a master plan for the site was in many respects, a quintessential new yorker. i was an immigrant for new york and there's something so amazing about arriving by ship with all the other immigrants from all countries. looking at that silhouette and saying, my god, this is, this is like seeing something out of out of the moon it's, it's not possible that people have built this kind of magical city. ah, new york is the best school of architecture, the city itself. as you look at the streets, as you look the way buildings are being built. as you look at the density of new york, ah,

and you see how hard people work, new york, that's a lot about architecture because architecture is more than meets the eye. it's more than the glory of building a building. it's, it's, what is life? what kind of life does it represent? and what does it contribute to people's lives with lewis solar, the father american architecture. in his 1900 speech to the new york architect said, new york city has one god, the god of money. nothing has change in a 100 years, new york city dre my money. but ambition, we want to build this. we want to build this. but how do you, with, if you build a private skyscraper for your client? how do you contribute something to the city? you have to make some gesture to the public worth building. i mean, they spent a ton of money on the coupon, on the, on the spire of woolworth, which was mister woolworth's office. after all, it took a private office of

a millionaire. but there's something glorious it's, it's, it's, it's like a church. it represents ration. oh hi. sibling has that incredible sort of needle that was put on to it at the very end. so i think there's a lot to be said that within the private world of her money, there was an ambition to, to add a civic dimension to it. i think that's part of what makes new york still a very, very interesting city, as opposed to many other cities that have a lot of tall buildings. but so what new york script system initially brought in to facilitate the parceling out of land in simple blocks. also lend itself to tall buildings for me, it gives the city too much order. perhaps

the reason i'm so drawn to these spots where broadway the pre existing native american trail intersects with the rigid monotony of the great felts in 19 o. 2 by one of the pioneers of a skyscraper, a flat iron building still feels modern. it's been described as resembling the power of a ship sailing a 5th avenue. it shaped maximizing the use of the triangular plot created by broadway as daniel says, a functional building. but a beautiful one to the golden age of a skyscraper was also the great age of american expansion. ah, in 1800. new york had a population of only 60000. by 1900,

it was a 1000000. in the 1920s, it overtook london as the largest city in the world. when the new york stock market crashed in 1929, the city already had more than a 180 buildings over 20 stories high. the patron of the last mega structure of this era, john j rescue reputedly gave his architect a simple, brief build as high as you can without it falling over the the results was the empire state the tallest building in the world for the next 40 years known in the trade as the empty state for his commercial failings, it was nevertheless, a vertical statement with which no one in new york or elsewhere for that matter could compete

in the shadow of the empire state is the office of an economist. he's drawn parallels between the economic imbalance lead to the 1929 crash. and the situation today. fascinating things is that we got into this mass by over investment in housing and our development of housing in speculative development and housing. how we stabilized the problem by organization in china, which is over investment in housing and over investment in albany, zation to look at the property markets around the world. and london is over inflated, new york is over inflated. and to me, that means you're going to get back into the mass very shortly. how do you think we can break? i cycle one of the ways in which we can break it is to actually start to rationalize the investment in urbanized zation. and in order to do that,

we have to spend much more money investing in affordable housing for ordinary people. but that means that ordinary people have to have the money to pay for it. which means that actually you've got to get employment back to a position where people have an income stream where they can afford a decent house on a decent living environment. what is stopping the pot from boiling over right now was keeping the lid on ashley. the lid is off in many parts of the world. we seen just in the last year eruptions and several cities in brazil has been on rest and stockholm, before that there was london paris and has a lot of unrest in urban areas out there, which i think is going to be very, very difficult to manage as to as time goes on is trouble brewing. it doesn't seem obvious in new york, at least not in its commercial at times square.

this was a high crime area for more than 50 years following the great depression. but today, it has a very different buying. it feels like a cathedral of consumers. people come specifically to see the flashing lights with photographing them and each other, with the same smartphones advertised on the billboards. another left leaning academic has labeled this pacification by catherine. as long as we have our branded phones and branded coffee content to ignore the big picture with when america began to find its feet after the depression, it was a boom driven by the same consumerism. a new york was at its heart. though the

buildings and the way they were built had changed, but not the staggering amount of money patrons were prepared to spend. the segan building and park avenue cause more per square meter than any previously built. the cult of the architect had also begun. few people know who built the empire state for the architect now became as important as the building seagrams creat me, vendor row, and his contemporaries, which are bringing the age of the architect as an item. the stock is these madness, and the patrons had very little sentimentality in many of the cities historic buildings with tone down the monolithic panam building now renamed metlife, was stuck on top of a delicate facade of grand central station. the station itself barely escaping the rectangle in

a city where money was still the only cause i guess it still is. new york prides itself on being the city that never sleeps the financial capital of the world. i can't help but wonder if that's what's going wrong. today, so many cities seek to emulate without understanding the sacrifice this entails, where there is no, the architect a captured by my money. here you are, you need money to build a building. but money is not the only thing that should drive architecture. because we see the fatality if architecture is only driven by money and only by private developers ideas. then the city is going to become ghost towns because only the rich will be living in the centers of cities. and everybody actually works in the central city. will live in some boondocks away, and the cities will be empty at night, and then we just investors and you know, who lives far away, who's empty apartments have no light. it's not

a good idea. after all, that's what a city is. it's a creative place. the people want to be in a city, they can get jobs, they can go to school, they can better themselves, they can meet other people. so if you segregate you create a horrible dichotomy that will be a failure and will lead to a, a, the end of city. new york itself may be changing the original world trade center was an incredibly controversial project . it's detracted accusing it, ignoring the people on the pavement in its race for the sky. the same feelings critics point to in today's mega structures, it's replacement has consciously taken a very different route involving the public right from the stall. my experience at the competition for grounds you are the world trade center,

which was a world competition with thousands of architects and millions of people being involved online and saying, i like it. i don't like it was really a symbol of the fact that architecture is become participatory that in an open society, i think she doesn't belong to anyone. i mean, somebody made my invested it, but it's part of the city. so everybody, every citizen has a right to comment, to steer architecture concentrate on the streets, concentrate on open space where people can sit down. that's why half of the fight of ground 0 or streets council public memorial, the museum so you can design a city just for one class, give to design it for everyone. i think that's part of the social justice that a city represents. ah,

ours may well be in planet, but it's wrong to assume this is an irreversible process. ah says he should come with a warning just as they rise. so come they for these were ones swiping neighborhoods, homes, people spend a lifetime painful. take them back by nature dense housing, demolished on reverting to grasp what has become known as the urban prairie. ah, no city has fallen further or hauled a van detroit, it's become the post a child full of and decline. mm ah,

the michigan central train station it is unfortunately a building that a lot of the national international media have come to cast as a symbol of detroit plight. and the problems that the city is going through to me is just ruined poor to be quite frank. with you, this is, you know, the story of detroit in detroit, issues are much more complex than and what you can understand just by looking at the train station. the problems in detroit are not detroit problems there. american profit, this is an american city, a great american city. so we're talking about a wholesale withdrawal of governmental support for industrialized cities. and you know, i think that the flag being near the train station is quite appropriate because like i said, this is not just the symbol of detroit play. but this is a symbol of america's play. neglect. to play lou. ready detroit's recent history might be one a decline, but this was, as darrell says, a great american city it was also an instant one

a population of 28501900 reached almost 2000000 in 1950, fueled by the needs of one industry d industrialization is a common issue in the developed world. my own home town of nottingham in the u. k. went through in the 19 eighties and nineties, but detroit's problem started long before that in creating the motor car for the mass market. detroit. so the seeds of its own decline when the car companies wanted to create new production lines all wanted to teach unionized labor a lesson. they just moved further out of town, taking with them the jobs and the tax revenues, the city needed to, ah,

at the same time the freeways and cheap cars, sub urbanized detroit, just as they did the rest of america. it was a long, slow death. the auto industries relationship with detroit seems a strangely unbalanced one. as does this relationship with the country as a whole. nietzsche sunday in the saying, what's good for general motors is good for america. when general motors filed for bankruptcy in 2009, the u. s. government stepped in to help what was good for g m. o was not necessarily good for detroit. when the city found for bankruptcy in 2013, no federal support was full coming in. the bankruptcy, us head people here. very

you know, we've been driving around and i've been looking at the cost people are driving, they're all american cars. people here love the auto industry a whole lot more than the auto industry love. detroit has always been known as a place where you could come get a job, an older home. you know me now in chandler, the one of those things. and so what we got was we got a housing crisis, we got a mortgage crisis, we got a meltdown of the housing market. no city was as harshly affected by that as detroit was. even when the president comes to visit detroit 1st, the only place he ever goes to the ca factory, because it was his idea to be allowed genome himself. your big part of is victory. narrative is that i saved saved the car company as well. you didn't say detroit. ah, i wonder if you can save a city blue. it seems to me that you can't make people come to

a place. you can only make it a place. people want to come to. ah, no one is more aware of the problems face in detroit than the people who live. i think what frustrates them is that too often the media chooses to illustrate problems from their ruined buildings and not from everyone minus saying you both what told your lives, you paid your taxes and now you're retiring. how things change in that period. shortly after retire. we find out that we're going to be cut from our pension is going to be cut. i'm almost sick, they say we're gonna have to take 30 percent of your income. that's a big thing. is huge increase. i have to file names up the, i mean, we're looking right now and we need to sell our house, not parents. this is what happens to senior incentives. and same story, say, sorry, but i think the difference lightweight because i was forced into the car. there was so many other ways we could have these fun. it's almost like they're going to last

very well. let me see. do you, the choice is easy to reclaim, you should say for this our own that a lot of make the land. and when did you build on are allowed to making copies about making factories. somebody has to be a champion for, and that's what i say. what we need is not just a simple mayor. you have to have a coach, a coach is going to treat me quite like a big team. then everybody's going to have an opportunity and ask what we need a stone's throw from the ruins and closed municipal buildings. you could be forgiven for thinking that this was already happening. the heart of a city has been given a brand to make code of detroit make over is however, just that few of these people live here. they commute from the suburbs or attend conventions, all come to watch baseball. london, new york city is where the coal has become too expensive. detroit is

a city weights become too cheap. parts of a sector have already been reclaimed by people attracted by the low cost of living under all signs that investors are starting to renovate the buildings, anticipating that this will continue some have pointed to this as a new beginning, but i'm not convinced it's any more significant and the really the graffiti looked suspiciously culprit real street artists tend to make their feelings known a little higher off the ground. if it is a true symbol of detroit, i like to think that it's the fist of joe lewis. one of the greatest heavyweight boxes of old time who move to detroit as a teenager it's one of my favorite time that says because until he began to work on it,

i had no idea. it was an object in motion. lewis said, every man's got to figure to get beat sometime, which is a false true, but it's when you do afterwards, the really counsel the cities have always been in motion. they have to be to evolve. and that, that what i think is different today is the speed, if that change is something which i fear is excluding us from the process. now, more than ever, we must consciously shape our city. because if we don't on this planet, it's all cities that will shape ah, ah,
