we must remember the horse manure crisis

Urbanization ultimately presented New York and Brooklyn with an equine crisis of mind-numbing proportions.

of manure a day, plus 40,000 gallons of urine.

Eric Morris, writing in ACCESS magazine, charts the fascinating rise

and demise of the urban horse.

In 1898, delegates from across the globe gathered in New York City for the world’s first international urban planning conference.
