“Twenty-odd years ago, this was Pablo Escobar’s town, with an annual homicide rate that peaked at 381 per 100,000. In New York City that would add up to an almost inconceivable 32,000 murders a year.” “Architecture alone obviously doesn’t account for the drop in homicides, but the two aren’t unrelated, either.” Sergio Fajardo, Mayor of Medellin, 2005
