So, going from SFH to 4-story apartments is typically a level of change that is going to distort the finances of a neighborhood in a way that is unhealthy, leading to affordability problems, stagnation, and resistance to change.

Thank you for saying this out loud. There are a lot of proponents of this level of change, but it rarely to very compelling outcomes.

Hi Eliana,

I'm a historic preservation student at Partt. Last semester we did a semester long research project on Bushwick, and I think I covered a lot of what your film covers in my research. Do you have any information about "The Well," the drug district in Bushwick that existed in the 1980s and early 90s? Do you cove it at all in the film? Do you have any examples of the community engaging or fighting the dealers? I know that Maria Hernandez was active in combating the drug epidemic. Unfortunatley she paid for it with her life. Thanks for doing this!

I'll have the oldest steak in the walk-in lunch special!
