After I moved in 1990, I never heard anything more about Cabrini Green. It was only recently that I began studying urban development, and was reminded of "America's Worst Neighborhood" and the lore surrounding it. I always wondered how that area became such a black eye on the face of public housing. Thanks for posting this. This an interesting article, as I lived in the Chicago suburbs for most of my youth.

My vision is that it could be remodeled to perfection and called rent controlled apartments instead of projects, and therefore become self sustaining. not relying totally on public funds. mixed income is a very good concept. I am so sorry for the people who had to live under extreme povery and lack of employment. That lead to a total devastation to any human's dignity. When desperation and outrage ste in people will do anything. Job training and investment in people was very crucial as the city wealthier. jobs are hope and dignity.
