I'm going to ask the question. The goal 
was to employ people of color on this 
work site (Hollman), too. Why did they not 
get employed??????

Hollman vs. Cisneros � 10 years later

It�s hard to believe that it�s been 10 years 
since we first heard the words Hollman vs. 
Cisneros. The class action lawsuit, alleging 
that the City of Minneapolis pursued 
historic discriminatory policies in public 
housing, was filed in 1992 and was settled 
in 1995 by a consent decree. The settlement 
resulted in the redevelopment of an 80-acre 
site in Near North Minneapolis where the 
Sumner-Olson and Glenwood-Lyndale public 
housing developments once stood. It is now 
called Heritage Park.
