The book America Recovered (Actar Publishers, 2019) pairs Ress's photographs with snippets of text that he pulled from recovery.gov, the government-sponsored and now-defunct website that listed each of the public works funded by ARRA. Although the site was taken down in 2016, a mothballed version can be found in the Library of Congress archive. --Landscape Architecture Magazine
