Small Town School













Small town schools are different then the large inner city ones. Everyone knows everyone, classes are smaller, but sports remains the center of it all. This structure has a large gym at the center and in a large "U" shape around it is all of the classrooms, library, and lunchroom. The sound of adults and children cheering in the gym has been replaced by the sound of dripping water and birds. All of the classrooms and hallways are full of discarded items and crumbling parts of the building. Out of all of these items, the hundreds of books just rotting away in a pile I find to stick in my mind the most. Is this what will become of education in the future?

The Lost Neighborhood










In a small part of Colorado stands some 30 homes that are sitting empty. Victims of Eminent Domain these homes now sit all alone. Very little is known about this place. There are no records, no one wants to talk about it, it does not exist. When standing in the middle of the street surrounded by these empty skeletons, all you hear is the wind. Deer, birds, and vegetation have taken back the land.
