I gave a report to certain councilman years ago who now resides in Spring Lake. The study found that the moving out of the poor does not happen at a faster velocity in a gentrifying neighborhood than it does in a similar non gentrifying neighborhood. What does differ is the ability to reenter the neighborhood that is undergoing gentrification. Yahoo!

[AsburyPark] Re: Upperclass boardwalk and downtown?
The question should be: Should the city have remained a run down wasteland it was? How many of you actually had a business in AP during those years? I did. The city, state, feds and general public had a great opportunity as did every single charity that every existed - to do what you ask? To have come in, purchased properties block by block and build housing, renovate housing you name it. And it wasn't and hasn't been gentrified - barely at that. Someone once said about the gay movement in AP - that it wasn't the rich gays Taking over - it was the ones that had vision and not rich enough to afford other gay communities. It hasn't been the rich that first came in and bought a bunch of run down boarded up houses that every one else had a chance to buy - it was a bunch of average people who really couldn't afford to buy in avon, belmar etc - maybe the second or 3rd resales of homes since 2000 were wealthier. Tell me one thing please - where were all these people, charities etc - that all had the opportunity to help and rebuild their own community - but didn't. Where was the APHA? Was the leader with vision in town? I once posted that I took a nice bike ride all around the east side of AP and counted how many - apartment buildings there were, how many multi family houses there were and how many condo there were. Is it a sin to have people coming into town, investing and fixing up homes that were boarded up, illegally converted and ridden with code violations - and not paying taxes?? As a reward, they (the gentrefires) get blasted by the community - for what? Trying to make it a safer place, paying taxes, opening businesses and spending money all around town. Add to that - developing programs, adding diversity and volunteering. Instead, get blasted for being gay, rich, racist, uncaring, selfish - And I;m sure most of us on this board crack open their wallet and give back to the kids and community in general many more ways - beside spending money and paying taxes. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, fancypaaantz fancypaaantz@ wrote: The problem is the inherent conflict with gentrification.

[AsburyPark] Spreading hate....
I came across this entry on the internet: Make no mistake about it; Martin Luther King was a radical. If he were alive today, most people in power (read: white people) would hate him, would hate what he was saying, and would hate what he was willing to die for. Once again, the person who wrote this is generalizing a point in time, a point in history and of course there may be some white people who would hate him. But this well educated writer writes this for what? Self-promotion? To cause us to reflect? It's a shame such talent uses his platform to state in no other words that white people hate black people while currently lives at the beach in NJ... Ironic. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jim-keady/do-you-really-want-to-cel_b_809799.html We know you're a well educated man. Please don't spread hatred where it doesn't exist. Yahoo!
