Deputydog has a good post going now about the rich-poor urban zone divide and photographs of it’s manifestation. One of the best parts is the comparison of the size of a tennis court (pictured) to the size of the low-income housing just over the wall from said court. Sao Paolo isn’t alone in this phenomenon though. It exists in varying degrees of contrast in just about any capitalist urbanity. This collection of photos is hardly comprehensive. One wonders what fruit an open call for submissions based on this theme would reveal.
