Beautiful Catalina. I especially loved the contrast of the Olympic village rusting and crumbling with the Barolo Palace... and of course the irony of it being the Olympics themselves which harkens back centuries. The photos also really helped to bring the piece alive. And the ideas of questioning our fast-paced, throw away world. Thanks...

I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Linda. Yes, you would think that the Olympic Committee would have considered this. Thank you for reading!

This is an awesome essay. I don't come from an architecture background or familiar with Dante's inferno, but it was well made. Love the overall message with choosing the long term and 'enduring' work like art

Wow, this is fantastic. The care, attention, crafting, and vision of this piece uplifted me like your ascent through the Barolos. Just a wonderful essay. Thank you for this today.
