    John Wilson’s “The History of Concrete” Uses the Built Environment to Critique Failing Systems (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    What happens when you spit out your gum onto a city sidewalk? If it doesn’t get stepped on and carried away, that wad of sticky, sugary glue becomes a part of your neighborhood. We’ve all seen it: grayish pavement blotches that, over time, have been pounded into a petrified sidewalk polka-dot. As we learn in filmmaker John Wilson’s first feature-length documentary, The History of Concrete, released on September 18 and screening at select U.S. theaters, these blobs don’t need to be perman

    Rubble From 9/11 Was Sent to Just One Landfill. This Photographer Has Spent 9 Years Documenting It (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    After the 9/11 attacks in New York City, nearly 1.5 million tons of rubble were removed from the site and sent to Staten Island’s Fresh Kills landfill. Once the largest dump in the world, the 2,200-acre site had already been decommissioned, and a competition for park designers launched, when it was selected as the place where Ground Zero materials would be redirected. Finally, in 2003, the decades-long revitalization project that would turn the stinking landfill into a massive wildlife park—subt

    Inside the Unconventional College That Blends Classical Building Trades With Liberal Arts Education (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Up in the rafters of the 1897 historic Charleston Trolley Barn, which houses the American College of Building Arts (ACBA), there is a respite from the campus’s buzzing finals week. Like a tree house, the space is intimate, a bit cramped, but filled with warmth. Pasted on one of the walls is what appears to be a page torn from a book depicting a Frederic Remingtonesque painting of an Old West gunslinger. Superimposed over the image are the words "SLOW IS SMOOTH / SMOOTH IS FAST." Smooth isn’t a t

    Dolly Parton Never Left Her Childhood Home Behind. We Shouldn’t Either (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone
