Not in my backyard -- that's the refrain commonly invoked by property owners who oppose unwanted development. Such words assume a special ferocity when the development in question is public housing. Lisa Belkin penetrates the prejudices, myths, and heated emotions stirred by the most recent trend in public housing as she re-creates a landmark case in riveting detail, showing how a proposal to build scattered-site public housing in middle-class neighborhoods nearly destroyed an entire city and forever changed the lives of many of its citizens.-- Public housing projects are being torn down throughout the United States. What will take their place? Show Me a Hero explores the answer.
-- An important and compelling work of narrative nonfiction in the tradition of J. Anthony Lukas's Common Ground.
-- A sweeping yet intimate group portrait that assesses the effects of public policy on individual human lives.

Stylish way to stay organized!
Color: Black
This tray is a perfect way to keep your everyday items organized and easy to find when you are getting ready for your day. No more wondering where you've put your keys, your glasses, your wallet, your watch or your every day wear jewelry like your wedding ring (if you have to remove it at night due to hands swelling or similar). This tray allows my husband to be ready to go quickly if we decide to spontaneously go somewhere. Its compact enough to fit on a night stand or a dresser, but still provides adequate spaces for your every day pocket items like a multi-tool or pocket knife, spare change, etc. Its well made and stylish too. I am very pleased with this purchase.
