11 JULY 2017 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: A woman swings in a hammock in front of her home in a community built over the Chao Phraya River south of Krung Thon Bridge. The residents of the community expect to be evicted and their homes destroyed to make way for the city's plan to build a 14 kilometer long (22 mile) riverfront promenade. Thousands of families are expected to be evicted to accommodate the promenade. The riverside communities, built on stilts over the water, are prone to flooding and the city has been trying to control them for years. The houses are the only affordable housing for available to some of the poorest people in Bangkok. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
