Welcome to our page! Here we will be discussing the topic of community and displacement by answering the question “How are the developers, the politicians and the community residents are working with or against each other regarding the redevelopment of the Gowanus area?” 

With this, we will provide photographs of the Gowanus neighborhood, an outline of how we will tackle the question, the full-on annotated bibliography, and a podcast where we go more in-depth with our thesis. Hope you enjoy!!
