Editor’s Notebook

摘要

In 1992 I first met George Phydias Mitchell on the 60th floor of Houston's tallest skyscraper. If you looked far enough to the north you could see The Woodlands, the master-planned development community he created about 30 miles from where we sat. If you looked 50 miles to the south, you might see the city of Galveston where Mr. Mitchell was born, where he spent much of his fortune on revitalization efforts, and where his wonderful life would end on July 26 at age 94.
