Last one;

Finished with recession, US city is in need of development (4) P?L?
I can only see PULA as remotely fitting (UP reversed + LA) – but how does the answer relate to “need of development” other than a condescending reference to the city in Croatia?

PS anyone found this WAY easier than the Times cryptics earlier in the week?

Hi Paul, Any chance the L is incorrect?
PUNY?

Mattrom, Paul - the third letter is an N, so Puny works.
