The banner is a mash up of photos taken 4.22.09 over a block or two on just one street - East 144 south of Kinsman - in Councilman Zach Reed's Mt. Pleasant ward in Cleveland, Ohio.  Lots of houses on the street are still standing, condemned and empty with the newly straw covered lots having just been harvested in the last month or so.    Dramatic.   The "American Dream" full speed in reverse!

And nothing is being done about it - unless you can tell me about something I have missed?
