Justice Re-investment New Orleans
Jess Garz made me aware of a mapping project that visualizes New Orleans topography in terms of money spent to incarcerate citizens. This is a project of Columbia University Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation. They specifically focused on the Florida Housing Projects, as a census block where over a million dollars a year is spent by the state to incarcerate residents. You can find and the accompanying blog here and their various publications on the subject here.
