Opis

This is the history of Skyline Tower, the largest §single-building housing project in the United States §west of Chicago. Built in a neighborhood with a §scarred past just blocks from one of Minnesota s §wealthiest neighborhoods on a precipice §overlooking a major interstate highway, and §constructed and managed by a for-profit corporation §receiving government subsidies during most of its §history, the story of Skyline Tower demonstrates how §the confluence of disparate trends produces a §situation of relative advantage/disadvantage in §racially hierarchical systems such as the United §States. These trends include changes in the public §reputation of the building including significant §social and demographic shifts, and transformations §in the role of government, public discourse, and §capitalism in the United States.
