The End of an Era

Sunday July 5, 2009
Take a look at this photo essay from The New York Times that records the situation in America's cities where major construction projects have been stopped suddenly due to the economic situation. Matt's Note: Shortly after I posted this item, The New York Times pulled the gallery since one of the photos was suspect. I apologize for the inconvenience. The link takes you to the NYT statement.

Matt,

This slide show has been removed by the New York Times, because the photographer altered the images. Your link just leads to a page that says that, and no slide show is available.

Maybe remove your link?

The slide show has been removed. Is there a similar story somewhere on the net? I’m interested.

Where is the slide? The offensive bit can be removed or is the whole document suspect? We may still lean something from it.
