Abstract
The infrastructure of information and communication technology (ICT) has coevolved with 
industry and transportation as a central property of the metropolis, bringing new symbolic 
landscapes and cultural meanings to urban life. Local, national, and increasingly globalized 
information and communication networks have broadly inflated a range of social and spatial 
boundaries, that is, the reach of active social connectivity, yet they remain unmistakably 
centered in the metropolitan core
