In this book, Sue Popkin tells the story of how an ambitious-and
risky-social experiment affected the lives of the people it was
ultimately intended to benefit: the residents who had suffered
through the worst days of crime, decay, and rampant mismanagement
of the Chicago Housing Authority (CHA), and now had to face losing
the only home many of them had known. The stories Popkin tells in
this book offer important lessons not only for Chicago, but for the
many other American cities still grappling with the legacy of
racial segregation and failed federal housing policies, making this
book a vital resource for city planners and managers, urban
development professionals, and anti-poverty activists.
