The forest behind the walls
This paper takes up ‘deconstruction’ in the late industrial urban Midwest (USA), a building removal practice focused on dismantling structures piece-by-piece, with an eye to retaining and reusing as many components as possible in future building and fabrication projects. Practitioners and advocates tout deconstruction as an ‘environmentally sustainable’ alternative to mechanized wrecking, and emphasize that ‘saving’ wood from the region's ubiquit…

Rethinking Vacancy, or Thinking with the Going Home
Based on ongoing research in Chicago, this commentary focuses on a ubiquitous figure in mainstream imaginaries of late industrial life in the urban American Midwest—the vacant home and the vacant residential lot it becomes when brought down by wrecking, weather, debts, and deferred maintenance. "Vacancy" is the commonplace term most of my interlocutors will reach for to describe such places. More often than not, this description opens onto expect…

Even the most consequential formations will pass. Empires will fragment, booming manufacturing centres will go bust, and extractive economies will run dry. Yet as much as consequential formations p
The Family Toxic
This essay examines anxieties concerning interpersonal obligations that gathered within and around low-income households of a redeveloping Chicago public housing project in the years following comprehensive public housing and welfare reform. These households navigated competing demands. Leaseholders continued to feel beholden to expectations that they distribute any resources to which they had access, such as shelter. At the same time, increased …
Last Project Standing
This study of Chicago's urban planning over the past two decades has three aims. The first is to understand how and with what effect a built environment in flux became central within the arguments that public housing residents advanced concerning their protection at a post-welfare moment. The book's second aim is to examine how feelings of interpersonal and collective obligation emerged, expanded, and were cut short in the wake of public housing.…
Experiments in Vulnerability
This essay examines tensions emerging around public spaces in a mixed-income development built to replace a distressed public housing project on Chicago's West Side. It argues that the disorienting experiences of moving through these spaces prodded new and long-term residents of the area to examine the practices of sociability they subscribed to. Specifically, it prodded them to examine what it would take to become more or less vulnerable to each…
The Museum of Resilience
This article offers an analysis of a "sympathetic public" cohering around the U.S. welfare state's wreckage that is tuned to the material dimensions of emplacement. It does this through an exploration of efforts to bring a national public housing museum to Chicago. Museum supporters mobilized the properties of ruined public housing to summon affinities and identifications with the U.S. poor and to reconfigure public reckoning about poverty in the…
Project heat' and sensory politics in redeveloping Chicago public housing
This article examines Chicago's ongoing public housing reforms and more broadly, welfare reform, as a kind of sensory politics. I analyze experiences of home heating at a redeveloping public housing project to establish how neoliberal demands for self-responsibility have become tied to demands that transitioning residents reconfigure their subjective senses of comfort. These twin demands have distributed the risks of transitioning out of public h…
