Curiously, cinci is seriously rethinking that specific stretch of road. There are currently plans oto kinda turn a bunch of it into a park…you’ll never guess who started moving in to the west end a few years back…
Yeah I was trying to think of how this could have happened. Maybe large developments in the suburbs? Then this part of town just became an area you drive through, to get where you are going. Maybe some low rent apartments there where mostly people of color lived. Add crime and mismanagement. Then eventually it’s ripe for the teardown. What a waste.
Gee I wonder what types of people used to live in those neighborhoods that were eviscerated for the highways…were they by any chance a minority?
