URBAN LIVING

The problems, potential, and poetry of life in the city. Urban spaces reveal multiple meanings. For skateboarders and late-night rollerbladers the alleys and asphalt are a playground. For the homeless man the streets are home. For the thousands who watch the demolition of the Sears building, the city’s a spectacle. Abandoned lots speak of the passage of time and lost luxury. Take the survey of random questions that cross one alienated city dweller’s mind, or ride the other elevated train, the one that doesn’t take you to work. Ah, to be urban and alive!
