Discovered a website today on the "peace walls" in Belfast, Northern Ireland which once separated communities and were intended to reduce violence. Urban barriers, a polite term for urban military architecture, appeared in Iraq on a massive scale awhile back. Though I cannot recall a thread on them.
The website has a collection of photos and links:http://www.peacewall-archive.net/ On their Twitter there is much more, including a few photos in the grim years of the 1970's with fortified army bases:https://twitter.com/Peacewalls
