Friends -
        As a kid I visited the Habitat housing project at the Monreal
World's Fair. Having just been completed, it has the look of a big pile of
concrete blocks. There was not significant greenspace within the project
itself, but it sat on the river with views and there were extensive patio
areas. It had a very urban feel and was confusing to move around in, but I
recall being amazed and intrigued by the design.
