"Vertical Slums" by Jonas Bendiksen.
"Failed urban renewal attempts stick out above a warren of metal-roofed shacks. Built to provide more modern facilities, the towers became dilapidated after only a few years because of poor maintenance. A current redevelopment plan calls for razing all slum housing in Dharavi and replacing it with more high-rises. But the free housing promised will house only a fraction of those losing their homes."
