- Henri Lefebvre, The Right to the City — In brief, the right to the city is the right to the production of a city. The labor of a worker is the source of most of the value of a commodity that is expropriated by the owner. The worker, therefore, has a right to benefit from that value denied to them. In the same way, the urban citizen produces and reproduces the city through their own daily actions. However, the the city is expropriated from the urbanite by the rich and the state. The right to the city is therefore the right to appropriate the city by and for those who make and remake it.

Think they got replace ny screens many places. Think the reason they are forgotten is how insanely expsensive they can be.
I bought zip screens for my westward facing windows and it was ridiculously expensive. And then the electrical work on top. They are all custom ordered to fit the window so it hikes up the price.
