Abstract:
Now considered a dysfunctional mess, Chicago's public housing projects once housed residents who described them as paradise. So what went wrong? To answer this question, the author traces public housing's history in Chicago from its New Deal roots through current mayor Richard Daley's 'Plan for Transformation'.
