Rather than a distinct temporal phase or project type in Goldberg's oeuvre, urbanism can be regarded as a constant theme in his career. As Goldberg once said, "urbanism for me is simply a description of the way people come together." Seeking both to improve the conditions of exist-ing urban areas and to create new ones, Goldberg employed a number of heterogeneous design solutions over the years. What unites these disparate projects is Goldberg's belief that "urban life will only be improved by increasing... population density [which can] make it possible to finance public transportation... to offer an intense cultural life, and to economize energy resources."
