12 DECEMBER 2012 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: A demolition worker and her daughter at "Washington Square" a notorious entertainment district off Sukhumvit Soi 22 in Bangkok. Demolition workers on many projects in Thailand live on their job site tearing down the building and recycling what can recycled as they do so until the site is no longer inhabitable. They sleep on the floors in the buildings or sometimes in tents, cooking on gas or charcoal stoves working from morning till dark. Sometimes families live and work together, other times just men. Washington Square was one of Bangkok's oldest red light districts. It was closed early 2012 and is being torn down to make way for redevelopment. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
