Inhabiting the Wall (West Bank)

Opening the wall recycles the Israeli-Palestinian barrier wall into a continuous, linear housing project opening to both sides. The project represents the first settlers and the first occupation of the wall. Miles of units can be punched through the wall to resolve existing housing crisis.
