as i walked through the tunnel from city hall to the
henn. cty. gov ctr. yesterday thinking of
redevelopment at nicollet lake i happened across a new
installation of wing huie's lake street project just
about to be mounted on the walls.
i've seen many of these photos a number of times. they
bespeak of the diversity that is lake street.
wing happened to appear and we talked briefly about
development on lake street. the word "colonialism" was
broached. maybe i am toally out of touch with the
reality of today's marketplace but some of the numbers
tossed out in yesterday's strib article truly
astounded me.
like the village green proposal for lyn-lake it seems
like we are looking at bringing a whole new economic
class into these neighborhoods and i wonder what
impact that might have on the current residents and
the city in general.
there are undoubtedly smarter people out there than i
and i hope some could give me some reassurance that we
are just not going to displace people who will have no
place else to go.
any help?
