The Urban Initiatives Program was announced February 15, 1979 as an Urban Mass Transportation Administration effort for addressing urban economic and development problems, using mass transportation projects as the key components. Some 47 projects in 43 cities were funded. The study examines and evaluates projects in 10 case study cities, ranging in grant amounts from $900,000 to $25 million in cities as small as Burlington, Vermont to the larger cities of Boston, Detroit, Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh. Of the ten projects included here, two are intermodal transfer facilities, three are transit malls, and five are joint development projects.
