Ken Davis is joined by Daniel Kay Hertz, author of The Battle of Lincoln Park. They discuss the profound impact that urban renewal had on the mid-century development of Lincoln Park, when early artists and rehabbers began reconstructing dilapidated brownstones and Victorians in the Old Town Triangle. Although the process began almost a hundred years ago, the patterns of displacement and gentrification are almost identical to those being criticized today in Pilsen, Logan Square and along the 606. This program was produced by Chicago Access Network Television (CAN TV).
