The following 2 books aren't really Urban but they do deal with the concept of Faerie and are considered classics of the genre so you may wish to check them out:

Lord Dunansy's important work King Of Elfland's Daughter.
Hope Mirlees - Lud In The Mist.

Also maybe Susanna Clarke's wonderful Johnathon Strange and Mr. Norrell is a little closer to the mark...

Just something to keep at the back of your mind perhaps...
