The Hidden Earth Beneath the City ebook

Every city hides another city below it. The Hidden Earth Beneath the City uncovers the forgotten burial grounds, gardens, and graveyards that were quietly transformed into the living spaces of today—parks, plazas, parking lots, even stadiums. This is a story about the ground beneath our feet—how it remembers what we forget. From 19th-century burial bans that reshaped Europe's capitals to modern redevelopment projects in America and Asia, The Hidden Earth Beneath the City traces how we redefined sacred ground as civic space.
