Housing inmates in the nation’s prisons is a notoriously expensive and laborious undertaking. One new facility in Cape May, New Jersey is using innovative design to try and manage both cost-cutting and alleviating tension between prisoners and guards by using open floor plans and direct supervision, a system that brings guards and prisoners closer together to increase the likelihood of rehabilitation.
