Benny Farm: cold and mouldy but environmentally sustainable (kinda)

Kazi Stastna has a report on Benny Farm’s building problems which are pissing off its residents and has already helped kill one.

The problems fall into a few very familiar categories: Finger-pointing when more than one organization is involved, low quality from a low bidder, and experimentation with new technologies that inevitably fails half the time.

It’s what happens when you make guinea pigs out of low-income families.
