Countdown to Main Street

Some years ago Main Street was declared dead, but those doomsayers need to visit New Jersey. From north to south, in all the 21 counties, Main Street is flourishing. I've visited Main Streets in 178 cities, in 14 countries, and counting. What I learned is that WE and Main Street are intertwined and interdependent.

About Me

My photo
Mindy Thompson Fullilove
I am a social psychiatrist. This field of psychiatry is interested in the ways in which social life affects mental health. I am the Helen and Robert Fullilove Professor of Community Health at the University of Orange and a professor emeritus at The New School. My work focuses on cities. I have spent a lot of time traveling in France with Michel Cantal-Dupart, a famous urbanist. I have written several books, including Root Shock: How Tearing Up City Neighborhoods Hurts America and What We Can Do About It and Urban Alchemy: Restoring Joy in America's Sorted-Out Cities. The third book in the urban restoration trilogy, Main Street, was published in October 2020. During the Covid pandemic, I became a devoted fan of K-drama and started a book, The Tao of K-drama.
