Before I head off to work..I need to address some of the issues.

You guys should know that certain areas in NY were "blacklisted" by banks for YEARS..PURPOSELY DRIVEN into the poverty level.

All levels of services were kept to a bare minimum..and new transportation was BLOCKED at EVERY TURN.

Case in point...
What caused the developers of MODEL CITIES to drop the Myrtle Avenue corridor after only constructing a few set of co op Housing type buildings?
What caused NYCH to abandon it plan to develop housing from Nostrand to Ft Green?
What caused then to stop construction on new housing in Bushwick[Central avenue..?]

Remember..Model Cities wasn't NYCH..it was HUD.

Answer those questions..and pose some more tommorrow.

Gotta pretty nice run today to North Carolina..[always fun]
