I’ve been obsessed with the Kowloon Walled City ever since I saw the book City of Darkness at the Giant Robot store and snapped up a copy. The Walled City was an incredibly dense, self-governed town outside of Hong Kong. The residents added-on and expanded the city where necessary, so it seemed to organically grow and sprout. The city was demolished in 1993 but there’s a German documentary from 1989 showing life in the city: part 1, part 2, part 3, and part 4.
