the largest projects in new orleans





these are the 7th ward projects. according to pastor davenport (see below for some info on him and his work in the projects), 60-70,000 people normally live here. now it's about 100 who are illegally squatting there. each night the pastor brings them food; each night they switch rooms, hiding from the predatory police. the place, particularly empty, has the feel of a concentration camp, architecturally speaking of course.
