USA. Chicago. The architecture of racial segregation. 2003. - USA. Chicago. The imposing 27-storey triangular Metropolitan Correctional Center, built by Harry Weese in 1975, to accommodate 400 remand prisoners. Today over 700 mostly black prisoners attempt to see daylight though 5 inch wide windows the widest aperture allowed by the Bureau of Prison standards. The upper levels of the building are for inmates, with judicial courts below. The exercise area is on the roof so there is little chance of escape. 2003 - Stuart Franklin

USA. Chicago. The architecture of racial segregation. 2003. - USA. Chicago. The Robert Taylor Homes project, on the south side, containing 4,321 apartments represented the apogee of American apartheid. In 1962 the Robert Taylor Homes, with 28 sixteen floor tower blocks at the time the largest public housing project in the world - represented just about everything that has gone wrong with public housing in Chicago. Living in one of those buildings today means facing the constant threat of gangs, shoot-outs, and drug-related violence. In the 1980s 11% of the murders in the city were committed there. So wrote the Italian sociologist Marco d'Eramo in 1999. Today, in 2003, they are being demolished. I watched a huge iron ball attached to a crane demolish one of the last 3 remaining Taylor homes. 2003. - Stuart Franklin
