“The Crossing”

There it is … the big “crossing.” I’ve seen a few articles about this … From the BBC News online and The Guardian. And I’m sure it’s covered in many other places. But one of the ones that struck me the most, and got me to start blogging was a visual essay that San Diego architect Teddy Cruz co-authored in a recent Adbusters magazine. Unfortaunately, I couldn’t get that essay (I’ll try to find the patience to scan my hard copy and post it later). But until I can find it, check out this lecture “Border Postcards: Chronicles from the Edge” from Teddy Cruz for the Canadian Centre for Architecture’s “James Stirling Memorial Lecture Competition.”
