    The Borel conjecture considered in this paper states that a homotopy equivalence between two compact aspherical manifolds is homotopic to a homeomorphism. The authors prove the Borel conjecture for a family of aspherical manifolds that includes generalized graph manifolds of \textit{R. Frigerio}, \textit{J.-F. Lafont} and \textit{A. Sisto} [``Rigidity of high dimensional graph manifolds'', Preprint, \url{arXiv:1107.2019}], cusp-decomposable manifolds studied by \textit{T. T. N. Phan} [Comment. Math. Helv. 87, No. 4, 789--804 (2012; Zbl 1269.53042)] and higher graph manifolds studied by \textit{C. Connel} and \textit{P. Suárez-Serrato} [``On higher graph manifolds'', Preprint, \url{arXiv:1208.4876}].
