TWA Flight Center and City Methodist Church

Eero Saarinen's TWA Flight Center is one of the most significant examples of mid-century architecture in the world and a symbol of 1960's Jet Age optimism. At the other end of the American experience is the long-abandoned City Church in Gary, IN., mute testimony to the racist and xenophobic forces that caused its downfall. Music by Stephanie Ann Boyd and Gustavo Leone.
