I might be mixing things up, but I thought Louis Wirth was more about sociology than urban design.

I remember studying about urban planning, and I feel like Frank Lloyd Wright had some ideas about cities too, but Radiant City sounds like LeCorbusier's concept.

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. The question is asking who promoted a "Radiant City", which sounds like an idealized urban planning concept. Based on my knowledge of architectural history, I believe that was associated with LeCorbusier, so I'll go with option B.

Oof, this is a tough one. I know Frank Lloyd Wright was a prominent architect, but I don't recall him specifically promoting a "Radiant City." I'll have to review my notes on urban planning theories to jog my memory.

Hmm, I'm not too familiar with the concept of a "Radiant City" - I'll have to think this one through. Maybe I can eliminate some of the other options first and see if that helps me narrow it down.
