    I lived just north of Cabrini Green while the changes occurred and if this development moves forward it won't have many similarities. Cabrini Green was a pocket of poverty mostly surrounded by wealth and any Brush Park development would be a pocket of relative wealth next to mostly poverty and a half mile by half mile pocket of relative wealth.

    Brush Park was a pocket of poverty before Cabrini Green was ever built.

    Cabrini Green was built in the 40's, 50's and 60's and I don't know when Brush Park went bad but a friend of mine [[in his late 60's) told stories of Brush Park brothels of his youth [[that funny enough, existed in the multi-units that Bernie eventually ended up rehabbing back in the early 2000's) and taking that guys age into consideration tells me Brush Park has been rough for awhile....sorry for my wordiness.
