I used the NYPL digital collection as my source since it is one of the largest digital collection on the web. I first tried to search for Farragut houses on all these digital archives which we were given to choose but none of them has any information on Farragut houses. So I did my blog search on “public housing” New York since i can related to Farragut houses and Pruitt-Igoe. I found a picture and it showed some information on why they built public housings and what it was meant for the people who were going to live there. It basically meant to get rid of the slums from the neighborhood and give people living there to move to a better, newer, cleaner, tall buildings with facilities and recreational areas as well as wee see at Farragut Houses and also in the ” The Pruitt-Igoe Myth”. In general, it is meant for the well being of the people and the neighborhood. But it is not always a success as we saw in Pruitt-Igoe, and in Farragut houses case, i have to rate it 6 out of 10.
