Three distinct industrial/immigrant neighborhoods, currently municipal and state-owned properties, mirror the absence of the physical and social fabric my family and hundreds of others once lived in. Using photography, the architectural landscape of Route 18, blended with family memories, dear friends' artistry, and primary resource research, I offer choreography that remembers the Italian and Jewish neighborhoods that Urban Renewal transformed.
