Great article. I live in one of the new condos across the street and have been documenting the transformation of the neighborhood over the past few years. From my point of view, it’s a win-win for the people that do live in these new mixed income communities. I am great friends with the family that lives in my building and I believe they will have more opportunity and quility of life because of thier new homes. I understand the loss of community they feel, but like this article points out, public housing was never intended to be permanent housing for anyone, only a stepping stone.

Anyway, here is my website where I have been posting my observations.
