He has taught at Yale for over 50 years, his students are a who's who of American architecture, and he has even had an award named after him. In this program, NewsHour correspondent Ray Suarez interviews architectural historian Vincent Scully, a passionate proponent of the New Urbanism. Together they discuss the need to stop designing towns and cities around the automobile. In support of his thesis, Mr. Scully cites issues such as the backlash against high-rise housing, the detrimental effects of the interstate system on viable urban communities, and the American love affair with the single-family home.
