The Cypress freeway in Oakland, CA collapsed during the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. It resulted in the deaths of 42 people and completely destroyed the freeway. After the earthquake the area was revitalized into the "Mandela Parkway". Today the area looks completely different than it did when the freeway existed. My project is a tracking of the former freeway path, through GPS and video to give people a since of how an area has changed since the disaster, and what it means for the community that has sprouted around.
