IF A PERSON ISN'' T EXPERIENCING IT THEY LIKELY KNOW SOMEBODY WHO IS, SO STATES A NEW REPORT BY THE HOMES FOR ALL CAMPAIGN. YEARS OF LEAVING MATTERS OF REAL ESTATE TO THE MARKETPLACE OR TO THE POLITICAL LEADERS OR LANDLORDS SIMPLY IS NOT SECURING REAL ESTATE. A COLONY POSSESSION STRUCTURE MIGHT HELP. VERSIONS EXIST BELOW AND ALL OVER THE WORLD. NEW YORK CITY CITY MAYOR COSTS DE BLASIO HAS WAS PUT SOME FINANCING BEHIND NEW COMMUNITY LAND DEPENDS ON. THE BRITISH LABOR CELEBRATION'' S HOUSING PLAN CONSISTS OF A MILLION NEW RESIDENCES AND PRICE DEFINED BY PREVAILING REVENUES, NOT RENTS. IN MANY PLACES, THIS IS AN ELECTION YEAR. BY WHAT CRITERIA SHOULD HOUSING POLICIES BE EVALUATED? OUR GUESTS KNOW THIS FROM THE INSIDE OUT.GIANPAOLO BAIOCCHI

IS THE SUPERVISOR OF THE URBAN FREEDOM LABORATORY AT NYU AND THE LEAD AUTHOR OF THE NEIGHBORHOODS OVER COMMODITIES REPORT. MONIQUE GEORGE IS THE EXECUTIVE SUPERVISOR OF IMAGE THE HOMELESS WHICH WAS VERY ASSOCIATED WITH THIS RECORD. SHE DESCRIBES HERSELF AS THE PROUD ITEM OF PUBLIC HOUSING. DELIGHTED TO HAVE YOU. WHEN YOU STATE NEIGHBORHOODS OVER ASSETS, WHAT DO YOU MEAN? > > IN THIS RECORD, WE INTENDED TO TAKE STOCK OF THE CONVERSATION WE HAVE BEEN HAVING AMONG SOCIAL MOVEMENTS AND ADVOCATES OF REAL ESTATE. THINK BROAD VIEW, WHAT DO WE STAND FOR? WHAT TYPE OF REAL ESTATE DO WE WANT. IT BOILED DOWN TO A VALUES INQUIRY. WE BELIEVE REAL ESTATE IS A. WE BELIEVE COMMUNITIES ARE MORE VITAL THAN ASSETS. WE WISH TO CONSIDER THE RIGHT TO REAL ESTATE FIRST, BEFORE TALKING ABOUT PUBLIC PLAN DISCUSSIONS ABOUT WHAT WORKS. IT IS A VALUES CONCERN. WE THINK BELIEVING OUTSIDE THE MARKET FRAMEWORK IS NECESSARY. > > THEY HAVE BEEN CONNECTED UP WITH BUY AND SELL VALUES.HOW DO YOU DEFINE THE SCENARIO WE ARE IN? > > THE VALUE HAS GOTTEN SUCH IT PRESSED INDIVIDUALS AWAY.

IF YOU LOOK ACROSS NEW YORK CITY CITY, YOU SEE THESE AMAZING, BEAUTIFUL BUILDINGS GOING UP, BUT THEY ARE PAST THE REACH OF HEAPS OF PEOPLE. YOU AFTER THAT LOOK AND SEE, IS REAL ESTATE A HUMAN BEING? THAT IS OUR REASONING FOR THE MOVEMENT SIDE. WHEN YOU SEE THAT INDIVIDUALS ARE BEING DISPLACED, AN RISE IN FOLKS UPCOMING INTO OUR WORKPLACE. LOOKING FOR SERVICES. ATTEMPTING TO FIND AFFORDABLE HOUSING, EITHER BEING FORCED OUT OR ON THE BRINK FROM COMMUNITIES THEY ARE BASED IN, YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THAT AND SEE THE LOOMING SKYSCRAPERS.YOU THINK, WE ARE THE ONLY ONE CLAIMING IT IS A HUMAN RIGHT. > > WHAT SORT OF NUMBERS ARE WE DISCUSSING? >

> THE CITY STATES 67,000 INDIVIDUALS REST IN SANCTUARIES EVERY NIGHT. >> WE UNDERSTAND THAT NUMBER IS CONSIDERABLY EVEN MORE. NOT >> TALKING ABOUT STREET HOMELESS. NOT TALKING ABOUT PEOPLE WHO ARE INCREASED OR TRIPLED UP AT NYCHA. I ASSUME OUR ESTIMATE, IF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THE HAIRPIN OF DEEP SPACE, IS CLOSE TO OVER 100,000. > > THE HOUSING RIGHT, IT IS NOT SOMETHING YOU COMPRISE. THIS REMAINS IN THE UNIVERSAL AFFIRMATION. IT LOOKS LIKE WE REQUIREMENT EVEN MORE, UNDERSTANDING WHAT ATTENDS TO >> THIS ISSUE. THEY ARE TYPE OF STANDARD. > > WE INTENDED TO TALK ABOUT WHAT TYPE OF HOUSING WE WANT. WE THINK THERE IS A DESTITUTION OF IMAGINATION WHEN WE TALK ABOUT PLAN SOLUTIONS >> TODAY. ONE OF THE PROBLEMS IS WE ONLY TALK ABOUT COST. THERE IS A MASSIVE PRICE ISSUE. AS A THOUGHT EXPERIMENT, YOU SHOULD ASK, DO YOU RECOGNIZE ANY INDIVIDUAL WHO RESIDES IN AFFORDABLE REAL ESTATE NOT IN PUBLIC HOUSING? NOBODY I UNDERSTAND. > > DEPEND UPON HOW YOU SPECIFY PRICE. > > BY THE STANDARDS OF 30 %OF YOUR AFTER LEASE EARNINGS. IT IS HARD IN NEW YORK CITY. >> FIFTY PERCENT OF RENTERS IN UNITED STATE NOT HAVE AFFORDABLE HOUSING>. ONE FOURTH ARE PAYING FIFTY PERCENT OR EVEN MORE OF THEIR INCOME. IT IS ABSURD. IT IS AN RIDICULOUS SITUATION WE REMAIN IN. IT IS NOT JUST AFFORDABILITY. THERE ARE A VARIETY OF THINGS ON THE TABLE. HOUSING NEEDS TO BE AFFORDABLE. PRACTICAL PROCEDURES. PERMANENT. COMPONENT OF THE PROBLEM ALSO, LOWER LEASE REAL ESTATE IS NOT STABLE. EXPULSIONS ARE REALLY HIGH. LOW EARNINGS INDIVIDUALS GET EVICTED REGULARLY. IT REQUIRES TO BE INCLUSIVE. WHO IS THIS HOUSING AVAILABLE FOR? PEOPLE WITHOUT FILES. INDIVIDUALS WITH JAIL DOCUMENTS. WE NEED HOUSING THAT IS CLEAN AND HEALTHY AND ENVIRONMENTAL IN SOME WAYS. IN NEW YORK CITY, WE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH REAL ESTATE CONDITIONS. ONE IN FOUR HOMES HAS A CODE OFFENSE. THEN, WE NEED REAL ESTATE THAT IS DEMOCRATICALLY MANAGED. WE NEED THE COMMUNITY TO HAVE A SAY, CONTROL OVER THE REAL ESTATE ITSELF. SOMETIMES IT MEANS PAINTING. An AREA SHOP. THE SHAPE OF THE AREA. NEIGHBORHOODS NEED TO BE ABLE TO DICTATE IT. > > WHAT DID YOU LOCATE? > > FROM OUR FACTOR OF SIGHT, THE U.S. MODEL, ONE OF THE MOST PRIVATIZED IN THE >> GLOBE. 97 %OF REAL ESTATE IN THE U.S. IS PRIVATE. A FEW OF THE WEAKEST RENT PROTECTION LAWS. IT HAS FELL SHORT ON EVERY ONE OF THOSE, NOT A SURPRISE. IF WE TAKE A LOOK AROUND EUROPE, OTHER COUNTRIES, THOSE WITH BETTER SECTIONS OF SOCIAL HOUSING DO BETTER. WE INTEND TO SPEAK ABOUT ALTERNATIVES THAT MEET OUR STANDARD EFFECTIVELY AND WELL AND WORK. WE SPEAK ABOUT LIMITED EQUITY COOPERATIVES. COMMUNITY LAND COUNT ON. THIS DESIGN FROM EUROPE, GERMANY, TENEMENT DISTRIBUTE. AND A LATIN AMERICAN VERSION WHICH WE THINK ACHIEVES SUCCESS. > > LET’S TALK ABOUT ONE OF THEM. THE LAND TRUST IS ONE YOU HAVE >> BEEN INVOLVED IN. MAYOR DE BLASIO IS SETTING FINANCING BEHIND NOT JUST LAND DEPENDS ON. WHAT DO WE REQUIREMENT TO KNOW? IS THIS A NEW THING? > > IT IS NOT A NEW THING. WE HAVE COOPER SQUARE, ALMOST THIRTY YEARS >> OLD. IT IS NOT A NEW CONCEPT. A CURRENT PRINCIPLE FOR A GREAT DEAL OF PEOPLE AND A VARIOUS CONCEPT. OCCUPANTS COLLABORATING TO OWN THE LAND.THUS BY STATING THE COST ON THE LAND COULD

BE FOR LIFE, BUT TECHNICALLY 99 YEARS. AND LOTS RENEW FOR ANOTHER 99. IT IS REALLY ABOUT AFFORDABILITY. BEING ABLE TO SAY THIS STRUCTURE WILL CERTAINLY STAY AFFORDABLE, REGARDLESS OF THE SURROUNDING STRUCTURES. WE SEE THAT NOT ONLY AS A DESIGN BUT THE DESIGN TO PRESERVE AFFORDABILITY. PEOPLE, IF THEY ARE ON SOME OTHER TYPE OF SUPPORT. THEY ARE HOMELESS, THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY REVENUE. WE HAVE TONS AND TONS OF FOLKS THAT NEED HOUSING. > > TALK TO US ABOUT HOW IT FUNCTIONS. THE LAND IS HELD BY >> A PUBLIC COUNT ON. PEOPLE CANISTER STILL, AS IT WERE THEIR OWN RESIDENCES. YOU ARE TRY OUT A DESIGN IN THE EAST EL BARRIO. > > IN THE EAST, THE EAST HARLEM EL BARRIO, >> WE HAVE FIVE BUILDINGS IN THE PIPELINE.THREE OF THE BUILDINGS HAVE TENANTS. WE ARE AT A PHASE WHERE OUR NONPROFIT DEVELOPERS ARE GOING RIGHT INTO THE HOMES TO SEE WHAT THE CONCERNS ARE. SEVERAL OF THESE BUILDINGS ARE QUITE OLD. THEY ARE LOVELY APARTMENT OR CONDOS. REALLY, WHAT WE NEED TO BRING THEM UP TO CODE. SEE HOW THEY CAN BE EXPANDED. SOME NEED TO BE BECOME DISABLED OBTAINABLE APARTMENTS. INDIVIDUALS ARE PAST DELIGHTED. I DON’T THINK THERE IS A DAY WE DON’T GET CALLS ABOUT HOW TO GET IN THE STRUCTURE. WE HAVE OTHER IN THE PIPE, HOW CONTAINER WE GET ENTAILED? > > HOW DOES THAT PIPELINE END UP BEING– HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN? >> HOW DOES THE CITY OBTAIN CONTROL, OF NEIGHBORHOOD ORGANIZATIONS? > > IT STARTED WITH A DISCUSSION, THE DIVISION OF REAL ESTATE> AND CONSERVATION, AND THEY HAVE BEEN RECEPTIVE TO THE IDEA.THEY UNDERSTOOD LOTS FOLKS WOULD BE INTERESTED.

INCREASINGLY MORE, PEOPLE THAT ARE INTERESTED TALK WITH FOLKS AT COOPER SQUARE. THEY TINGLE. WOW, THIS IS AN ACTUAL CHOICE THAT COULD KEEP United States. > > WHAT HAPPENS TO THE STATE? A LOT OF THE VERSIONS, COMMUNITIES CONTAINER END UP BEING THEIR OWN OWNERS. SUPERB. TAKE HOUSING CONCERNS OFF OF THE STATE’S HANDS. WE STILL DEMAND PUBLIC REAL ESTATE WHAT IS THE NATURE OF THIS MIX? > > THERE IS A FUNCTION FOR THE STATE TO PLAY IN IT.WHAT THAT COULD APPEAR LIKE, BEYOND FUNDING, THERE IS INITIAL FUNDING FOR OUR BUILDINGS.

NONPROFIT DEVELOPERS WILL CERTAINLY HAVE TO PARTNER WITH FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS. IF THEY PARTNERED WITH THE STATE, it WOULD BE AWESOME. THE STATE PUT FINANCING INTO NEIGHBORHOOD LAND DEPENDS ON, NOT RIGHT HERE BUT THROUGHOUT NEW YORK CITY STATE. WE GO TO A CONFERENCE YEARLY. NUMEROUS COMPONENTS OF THE COUNTRY, STATES ARE DRAWING IN AND SUPPLYING FUNDING. THE NONPROFIT PROGRAMMER DOES NOT NEED TO DO THIS. > > TWO CONCERNS. HOW DO YOU GET THE CITY ON BOARD? THE OTHER ONE, YOU MENTIONED DESIGNS, A DISTRICT OR STATE IS DOING THE RIGHT THING

>>? > > WE CONTAINER TALK ABOUT THE URUGUAY INSTANCE. IT IS ESSENTIAL TO UNDERLINE SOMETHING. THE STATE REQUIRES TO CONTRIBUTE. A LAND TRUST FUND IS A PUBLICLY HELD TRACT. ALL THE SUCCESSFUL MODELS WE KNOW OF, LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND STATE GOVERNMENT INJURY UP PLAYING AN CRUCIAL DUTY. I DO NOT KNOW ANY EXAMPLE THAT WOULD NOT HAVE STATE INVOLVEMENT.IT IS A QUESTION OF POLITICS AND POLITICAL WILL. THE URUGUAY STORY IS INTERESTING. THEY HAVE THIS VERSION OF COOPERATIVISM. YOU CAN ASSISTANCE CONSTRUCT THE STRUCTURES

WHICH MAINTAINS THE PRICE DOWN. INDIVIDUALS OFTEN HAVE THOSE KINDS OF ABILITIES. THE CITY OF MONTEVIDEO HAS A HIGH PERCENT OF HOUSING AS COOPERATIVE. I BELIEVE THEY HAVE 300,000 RESIDENTS ALL TOLD. THESE ARE DEMOCRATICALLY RUN, BOTTOM-UP, SIGNIFICANCE YOU CAN NOT SELL and acquire. WE COLLECTIVELY DECIDE WHAT TO DO WITH IT. > > THERE ARE VERSIONS WHERE YOU CAN MARKET BUT AT A CAP TO PRICE. THERE ARE DESIGNS WHERE YOU HAVE SOME DEGREE OF EXCHANGE. > > SOMETHING YOU HEAR CONCERNING NEIGHBORHOOD LAND TRUST,> INDIVIDUALS FEEL HOMEOWNERSHIP IS A MEANS TO HAND DOWN STABILITY.YOU CONTAINER OWN A HOME. YOU COULD SELL THAT SECTION. IN A LIMITED EQUITY CO-OP, YOU CAN >> OFFER YOUR SHARE. YOU ACQUIRED IT FOR$25,000. YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO SELL$50,000. > > THIS IS POLITICAL ELECTION YEAR.

INDIVIDUALS ARE EXCITED. HOW DID YOU GET THE MAYOR ENTAILED? IT IS A BRAND-NEW DAY. > > WE WERE DOING IN THIS MANNER PRIOR TO I GOT THERE. I HAVE BEEN THE EXEC DIRECTOR >>, 14 MONTHS. OUR MEMBERS HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THIS. 6, 7 YEARS. WORKING TO NOT JUST OBTAIN WORDS OUT >> TO CAPACITY BUILDINGS BUT ACTUALLY PRESSING ELECTED OFFICIALS AND THE MAYOR THAT THE IDEA IS A SENSIBLE IDEA.TRULY AFFORDABLE REAL ESTATE, REALLY ACCESS THE INDIVIDUALS WHO REALLY REQUIRED THAT. IF THE CITY IS DEDICATED GOING DOWN ON THE HOMELESS, THIS IS THE METHOD TO GET INDIVIDUALS INTO AFFORDABLE REAL ESTATE. A MASS ENJOYMENT. INDIVIDUALS TIN VIEW ON OUR WEBSITE, THEY CONTAINER COME AND VOLUNTEER. > > IT IS NOT SIMPLY FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE HOMELESS. > > NOT AT ALL. > > THERE ARE INDIVIDUALS THAT CANISTER NEITHER BUY NOR RENTAL FEE AFFORDABLY. > > PEOPLE TEND TO THINK HOMELESS FOLKS ARE NOT WORKING.45%IN FACT FUNCTION EVERY DAY. THE PRICE IN THE CITY HAS GOTTEN SO BAD, IT IS HARD TO ENTER INTO SOMETHING YOU CAN LIVE. > > TO CLARIFY THIS QUESTION OF> COST, THEY ARE MOVING THE MEANING. >> HOW IS IT DEFINED TODAY AND HOW SHOULD IT BE DEFINED? >

> FEDERALLY IT ' S 30%AFTER TAX EARNINGS. WHEN WE DO INCLUSIONARY ZONING IN NEW YORK CITY WE USE AVERAGE EARNINGS. WE THINK IT IS UNREALISTIC. >> IT CHECKS OUT THE WHOLE LOCATION. IT CREATES NUMBERS THAT ARE NOT COST EFFECTIVE FOR WE THINK IT NEED TO BE NEIGHBORHOOD-BASED. > > IF YOU ARE– >> EAST HARLEM, IT INCLUDES PARK AVENUE. > > EXACTLY. > > FINAL IDEAS ABOUT HOW PEOPLE CANISTER BE ENTAILED. THE LEVEL, INVOLVING THE AREA. IS THERE A CLEAR QUESTION TO ASK THE CANDIDATES RUNNING? > > ONE, KNOWLEDGE OF AREA LAND COUNTS ON. >> HOW THEY CAN SUPPORT IT IF ELECTED OR REELECTED. >> > > ANYTHING TO ADD TO THAT? > > THE DEDICATION IS TO SOLVING THE REAL ESTATE CRISIS. HOW WILLING IS SOMEBODY TO CONSIDER VARIOUS VERSIONS AND IDEAS? ONES A LITTLE OUTSIDE? >> > > MANY THANKS SO MUCH FOR COMING IN AND DISCUSSING THIS.WE WILL MAINTAIN OUR EYES OUT. > > THANKS FOR HAVING United States. >> ♪ [MOTIF SONGS >>] ♪ > > I ASSUME WHEN WE BEGAN WE WERE LIKE, NOT UNICORNS, BUT WAY TOO MANY OF United States. > > WE ' RE STILL UNICORNS. > > AS BLACK FEMALE DESIGNERS, WE> ARE UNICORNS. IN TERMS OF PUBLIC PASSION STYLE WE ' RE NO LONGER– > > MY >> NAME IS LIZ. I AM A FOUNDER AND PRINCIPAL. > > I AM THE COFOUNDER AND STYLE SUPERVISOR OF CREATING JUSTICE, DESIGNING SPACES >>. >'> WE ARE SEEING GENTRIFICATION, THE DISPLACEMENT OF INADEQUATE LOCALS BY WEALTHIER NEW COMERS. PEOPLE ARE RETURNING IN. WE'ARE SEEING A PATTERN. THE POOR AND PEOPLE OF COLOR ARE BEING DISPLACED. >> IT IS NOT THAT THESE AREAS DO NOT NEED NEW SERVICES, NEW RESOURCES, NEW HOUSING. WE SHOULD FIND OUT A WAY TO ALLOW INDIVIDUALS TO HAVE THE CAPABILITY TO REMAIN IN THEIR HOUSES AND IN THOSE COMMUNITIES, AS OPPOSED TO PHRASE WE ARE GOING TO REPEAT THIS CYCLE OF DISPLACING. > > GENTRIFICATION AND INCARCERATION, IN REGARDS TO THE RELATIONSHIP WE SEE, WHERE YOU CONSTRUCT THESE THINGS IN PARTNERSHIP TO THE NEIGHBORHOODS and neighborhoods. THE TRUTH THAT WHEN PEOPLE ARE INCARCERATED, THEY HAVE TO LEAVE THEIR COMMUNITY. THEIR FAMILIES ARE STRUGGLING.

>> THEIR PARTNER, THEIR SPOUSE, IS INCARCERATED SOMEPLACE. WHEN THEY RETURN, IT IS A LITTLE BIT OF A CALAMITY. THERE WERE NEVER LOTS PLACES FOR THEM TO GO. IF YOU HAVE BEEN INCARCERATED, you TIN ' T OBTAIN SECTION 8 HOUSING. INDIVIDUALS END UP HOMELESS. SO, IF YOU JAILED, YOU COME BACK, PEOPLE ALREADY BEING DISPLACED, YOU CAN NOT OBTAIN SECTION 8 HOUSING.YOU END UP IN THE STREETS. IT IS A CATASTROPHE FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE, AT LEAST IN OAKLAND. > > THIS CERTAIN TASK HAS LESS CORRECTIVE JUSTICE AND MORE RESTORATIVE ECONOMICS. THERE ' RE OTHER CONCEPTS IN THERE ABOUT BRIDGING THE DIGITAL LIGHT AND FABRICATION FOR

LOW-INCOME AREAS OF SHADE. WE WILL HAVE SOCIAL VENTURES ON THE VERY BEGINNING. >> THIS REALLY CONCENTRATES ON THAT PIECE. HOW DO YOU TAKE THE PROGRAM AND MAKE IT BASICALLY FUND THE PROJECT? WE ARE TRYING STRANGE NEW THINGS. SOCIAL IMPACT BONDS. HOW YOU PAY FOR POINTS DIFFERENTLY. AS OPPOSED TO YOUR DESIGNER. I HAVE TO MAKE MY MONEY BACK AND A GREAT DEAL OF MONEY. > > ONE OF THE INTRIGUING POINTS, FROM THE FOR-PROFIT DESIGNERS, THERE ARE SOME WICKEDNESS ONES OUT THERE. I DO NOT THINK THAT CANISTER BE DISPUTED. THERE ARE SOME WHO HAVE A WISH TO DO GOOD. OR ARE OPEN TO A MANNER IN WHICH PERMITS THEM TO DEVELOP SOMETHING THAT IS MONETARILY LASTING BUT ALSO SOCIALLY >> IMPACTFUL. WHAT THEY REQUIRED IS A CALCULATED INSTRUCTIONS THAT IS AIDING THEM DO THAT. IT IS NOT UPCOMING IN AND WAVING THE FLAG, OH THE INADEQUATE PEOPLE, YOU MUST DO THIS.HAVING AN UNDERSTANDING OF THEIR GOALS AND TRYING TO FUNCTION WITH THEM CREATIVELY TO NUMBER OUT, HOW DO WE MAKE THE NUMBERS FUNCTION? HOW DO WE MAKE CERTAIN WE ARE SUSTAINING THE COMMUNITY? HOW ARE WE THINKING DELIBERATELY REGARDING A FEW OF THE THINGS WE ARE DOING? THERE IS A TASK IN CHARLOTTESVILLE. AS A RESULT OF THE MODIFICATIONS THAT HAVE BEEN DONE, FEDERAL SUBSIDIES,

NEEDS TO BE DEVELOPED AS BLENDED REVENUE. THAT IS THE REALITY OF LOW REVENUE. THERE IS NO MONEY FROM THE GOVERNMENT TO ACCOMPLISH SIMPLY LOW EARNINGS. WHAT WE BEGAN REVIEWING IS IF YOU START DOING IT, PHRASE WE ARE BRINGING THEM BELOW, WE HAVE ADDRESSED THE ISSUE BY THE REALITY THEY LIE ON THE SAME RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY, THERE IS NO ASSIMILATION. HOW DO WE THINK DELIBERATELY CONCERNING THE STEPS WE ARE DOING? THE CONVENIENCES WE ARE PRODUCING. SERVICES THAT BOTH CANISTER COME WITH EACH OTHER. THINGS THAT CONSTRUCT COMMUNITY. TO SAY, LET’S NOT CREATE SOMETHING THAT IS SIMPLY REPEATING THE SINS OF THE PAST. I HAVE BEEN WORKING IN A NEIGHBORHOOD, A HISTORICAL AFRICAN AMERICAN NEIGHBORHOOD.INDUSTRIAL. POWERPLANT, THERAPY PLANTS. ALSO, A GREAT DEAL OF THE PUBLIC HOUSING. THE AREA WAS THE ONE THAT LOBBIED FOR THE POWERPLANT TO COME DOWN. A TEAM OF MOTHERS LIVING IN PUBLIC REAL ESTATE ALONGSIDE THE PLANT THAT LED THE BATTLE. THE POWERPLANT CAME DOWN. LEFT 30 ACRES IN ITS WAKE. THE UTILITY BUSINESS CLAIMED THE DIRT BUT TOPPED IT WITH ASPHALT. YOU HAVE 30 ACRES OF ASPHALT.

5-10 ADVANCEMENT CYCLE AT LEAST. MY TEAM OF DESIGNERS, MY COMPANY AND OTHERS, WERE BROUGHT IN TO TRY AND TURN IT RIGHT INTO AREA BENEFIT. WE HAVE BEEN DOING AREA PROGRAMMING. THE CONCEPT IS WITH THE GROWTH PROJECTS, YOU ARE TAKING A LOOK AT LONG TIMELINES. HOW CANISTER YOU CREATE SOMETHING THAT BENEFITS THE NEIGHBORHOOD NOW? WE CONTAINER ALWAYS BE RESOURCEFUL. WE DO JOB TRAINING WORKSHOPS. TRY TO CREATE AREAS OF PLEASURE IN ADDITION TO OBTAIN ABILITIES. > > WHEN WE BUILD DETAILS, HOW CONTAINER WE START TO BUILD A FEW OF THE HISTORY BACK IN? HOPEFULLY WE CANISTER DO THAT WITH EITHER THE RETAIL COMPONENT OF SOMETHING.IS THERE A MEANS TO HAVE THE AREA DO AN ART ITEM? THAT IS STILL BELOW? THAT IS RIGHT HERE NOW? WHAT HAS OCCURRED IN THE PAST TO MAKE A MARK ON THE LAND? > > WE PARTNERED WITH STORYCORPS. WE INVITED AREA MEMBERS TO RECORD STORIES. EVERY STORY THAT IS TAPED AS AN AUTHORITIES STORYCORP RECORDING. IT GETS ARCHIVED IN THE COLLECTION OF CONGRESS. FOR MANY INDIVIDUALS, IT WAS A METHOD TO SAY, YOUR TALE WILL CERTAINLY NEVER BE LOST. ♪ [STYLE MUSIC] ♪.

> > IN THIS RECORD, WE WANTED TO TAKE STOCK OF THE DISCUSSION WE HAVE BEEN HAVING AMONG SOCIAL MOVEMENTS AND ADVOCATES OF HOUSING. > > WHAT DID YOU FIND? > > LET’S TALK ABOUT ONE OF THEM. > > EXACTLY. ♪ > > I THINK WHEN WE STARTED WE WERE LIKE, NOT UNICORNS, BUT TOO LOTS OF OF US.
