The installation was perfect--creative, beautiful with more than a nod to the history of the place.

I fell in love with Northeast Philadelphia during my first year of graduate school when I would drive 
to an internship at the women's jail. 
NE is the product of generations of creative hard working families and the Disston Saw Works, the 
buildings and on-going work, is a testament to their investment in making community, home and
economic products.  
With care we can renew our collective creative energies, as the artists have shown, 
to rebuild a sustainable economic foundation where we can all live with dignity. Cheers to Disston and the art it inspired!

This was extraordinary. The installation was beautiful in its many parts. Having the artists present was a great gift. They made deep connections between their work and the site which were invaluable. The tour was most interesting. The infirmary looked like an installation in itself. The contrast between Philadelphia's industrial past and its paper shufffling crumbling
