Three decades ago, the Washington Post writer Joel Garreau published his book Edge City. It was subtitled ‘Life on the new American frontier’, and it caused a huge stir on both sides of the Atlantic.In it, he identified a new kind of place - often yet to be recorded on a road atlas - that was shaping the way Americans lived.
