Are they being rebuilt by developers for rich white renters? Are you sure they're not being built for rich renters?
- peterwwillis 8y agoThey're being built for predominately rich white renters, based on the people moving in to these neighborhoods for the past few years. It's a classic gentrification story. Before you would have had mostly black and latino residents, and now on many blocks it's mostly white residents [and businesses]. The marketing is basically "Can't afford Williamsburg? Move to Fishtown."
