How to Kill a City: Gentrification, Inequality, and the Fight for the Neighborhood - Pe Moskowitz

Descriere How to Kill a City: Gentrification, Inequality, and the Fight for the Neighborhood - Pe Moskowitz

An exacting look at gentrification (New York Times Book Review)--and the lives devastated in the process \n The term gentrification has become a buzzword to describe the changes in urban neighborhoods across the country, but we don't realize just how threatening it is. It means more than the arrival of trendy shops, much-maligned hipsters, and expensive lattes. The very future of American cities as vibrant, equitable spaces hangs in the balance. \n \n A vigorous exposé revealing who holds power in our cities, How to Kill a City uncovers the massive systemic forces behind gentrification in New Orleans, Detroit, San Francisco, and New York. Now with a new preface reflecting on the present-day political landscape surrounding the housing crisis, How to Kill a City is essential reading for anyone who cares about the fate of our cities and our nation.\n
