About this listen

Felix Mercer explores how Phoenix's 2008 foreclosure ghost towns mirror 1880s mining boomtowns like Bodie and Calico — same speculative pattern, different resource. From silver mines to subprime mortgages, American communities repeatedly build permanence on temporary foundations, creating modern ghosts with vinyl siding instead of weathered wood, revealing our inability to learn from repeated collapse.
