Urban area lacking in green space.

Unfair distribution of resources

I wonder if the health risks to the residents of the neighborhood due to increased air and noise pollution from the highway was taken into consideration.

Unequal distribution of land. Those with wealth have access to more space and greenery around them. Those in lower economic situations are forced into crowded homes/neighborhoods with limited green space around them

Manggahan Floodway, Philippines

Locational discrimination & geographically uneven development - "blocked pipes and a poorly maintained sewer system, along with uncollected domestic waste, were major contributory factors in the speed with which the flood waters were able to engulf the surrounding area"

Port of Manila, Philippines

This photo reminded me of when I took a ferry from somewhere near here. I got dropped off by a taxi a ways from the entrance because of the traffic and walked through similar areas, I had been in a mall in the downtown area with a rolling suitcase and backpack and was just taken aback by the very sharp differences of only a mile or so. What struck me about many of the photos was the sharp contrasts, in the sense that these spaces are often deliberately created/separated.

Pembo, Taguig, Metro Manila, Philippines

Dense neighborhoods like this may face spatial justice issues such as inadequate access to essential services like clean water and healthcare, and limited public spaces, which can exacerbate social inequalities and impact residents' quality of life.

Seattle, WA

This was interesting to me because people travel from all over (including myself) to see these well-known sites while Seattles own citizens can't afford the same luxury in their own city

Geographically run even development

I chose this picture because I thought the water was interesting. This picture is the earliest of the series but even here you can see how the water is being cut off from the heavily populated area and reserved for the affluent residents.

Wealth concentration near bodies of water while the inner city lacks proper infrastructure and resources. Congested living spaces in areas with less wealth.

Racial Segregation

Bogotá, Bogota, Colombia

2024-08-28 01:26:36 UTC

This image really stood out to me, the contrast between Strata/Estrada 1 (the poorest class) and 6 (the wealthiest class.) Unfair distribution of resources is embodied here, as well as Geographically uneven development with the allocation of green-space only being accessible by Strada 6. This image caught my eye in particular because both sides have a basketball/sports court; although differing in colors, the lines delineating the parts of the court are almost identical.

Contrast in space and green

Bogota, Colombia

I found the cable cars striking because I used to think of them as primarily for tourism, so it surprised me to learn and see that people use them for everyday commuting

I appreciate how this photo shows the condition of the houses near the port. The zoomed-out aerial shots show obvious contrast, but the detail of the houses in this photo is striking to me.
