We used to hear the phrase ‘Warehousing the poor’.

That’s essentially what Cabrini-Green was, a warehouse of the poor. Which became a slum, and the slumlord was the city of Chicago.

That was eventually torn down.................

Yeah. Many cities eventually tore down those types of project housing.

This is mostly virtue signaling. They’ll spend a few billion dollars to buy some electric buses, maybe install some solar panels and replace some galvanized steel with copper plumbing while some grantee will test the air and water quality and number-crunch the utility costs and proclaim “mission accomplished”. Nothing that much more productive or efficient will have been done.
