Two urban affairs conferences this month are expected to keep all aspects of city life up for discussion in Dallas.
The Dallas Morning News reports the New Cities Summit opening Tuesday was expected to draw about 800 participants from 40 nations, many of them from the worlds of academics and entrepreneurism, for what organizers call "the leading global event on the future of the urban world."
It's the group's third annual meeting and the first in North America.
After the summit wraps on Thursday at the Winspear Opera House, The U.S. Conference of Mayors opens its four-day annual meeting on Friday at the Omni Dallas Hotel.
