love this piece from @PhillyInquirer with @debbie_wei and @AsAmUnited inquirer.com/news/rodney-at…
Well, when we asked what specifically they studied and learned, he said “we aren’t in Chinatown.” That was the extent of their “study.” DC took one street of Chinatown and in 6 years, less than 10% remained. They lie, gaslight and obfuscate but they can’t hide.
@76Place .@DGould_PHL told Chinatown community members that developers studied how an arena destroyed DC Chinatown and that #76place wouldn't make the same "mistakes." That was 6 months ago. What mistakes were made? What's the plan for avoiding them here? inquirer.com/opinion/commen…
