"A Redlined City Reimagined" by Christopher Prinsen 
  

In the 1930s a government-sponsored entity drew a line around over 60% of Macon, Georgia on a map, colored it red, and gave it a D. The worst classification possible. The line denoted a hazardous place to underwrite mortgages and was based on a false belief that African Americans would undermine property values. Regrettably, the line forever codified patterns of racial segregation and disparities in access to housing, credit, and wealth accumulation for the last 90+ years.

A wall is an element typically utilized for divisive means. The Anti-Wall is a dynamic and permeable architectural intervention constructed atop the red line which has segregated our communities for almost 100 years. Community members can place their life experiences and dreams for the future into the Anti-Wall in the form of written letters. The letter is then etched and embedded into its facade.
