The Plan to Cleanse a City’s Sewers and Future Wealth
John and Almon Strauss discuss a hidden plan to tackle New York’s sewer crisis. They debate aging brick conduits, drainage into disposal works, and a future for scientific plants to recover minerals and fertilizer. The conversation hints at a larger strategy for the city’s transit and growth.

Vision of a future city and its stark contrasts
An oration contrasts urban progress with old world life. Almon Strauss recalls Lipvitch and the Bowery while envisioning a colossal future city: centralized zones, near-work living groups, parks, and mass human potential. He imagines city life as economical, educational, and humane, ending with a note that the narrative continues Thursday.
