When I first started this project, I had no idea what or where the Edgewood neighborhood was. To be honest, I chose the area because it was separated from all of the other pins on the Google Map and I did not want to pick a site that was too jumbled in with the others. […]

May 4, 2017June 2, 2020 Rabia Muhammad Theatre and Wall in Shaw, Uncategorized
