the city of darkness

Today's keyword to google is " The city of darkness"
And I found " the Walled city of Kownloon", Hong Kong



Among many sites having articles about The City of Darkness, here are some good links:
Archidose/KWC
Vi.sualize.us

But the best thing I found is this one, the hand-drawing of its cross-section



To photograph this super-slum must be very interesting. But to see something like this in one's hometown is a shame. It's great to know that they demolished it, replacing it by a park. Uhm...lemme think, is there any area in my city need the same treatment ?
