Edward J. Logue


Edward J. "Ed" Logue was born in Philadelphia and an urban planner, public administrator, lawyer, politician, and academic who worked in New Haven, Boston, and New York State.
Commentators often compare Logue with Robert Moses - both were advocates of large-scale urban renewal in the United States from the 1950s through the 1970s.
Logue headed the New Haven Redevelopment Agency, Boston Redevelopment Authority, New York State Urban Development Corporation, and the South Bronx Development Organization. Logue is best known for overseeing major public works projects, such as Faneuil Hall-Quincy Market and Government Center in Boston, and the re-development of Roosevelt Island in New York City.
