SOUTH CHICAGO : IN PROGRESS
"South Chicago: In Progress" is a documentary project that tells the story of a marginalized former steel-mill community in South Chicago through the eyes of community residents, and give voice to the concerns and solutions surrounding a planned large-scale development that directly borders their neighborhood. The project examines the paradoxes, questions and challenges intrinsic in attempting urban revitalization in this contested area and opens a dialogue about the forces that shape progress while paying homage to the area's rich and proud history as the former steel-making capital of the world.
