On a somewhat related matter, wasn’t there a saga from Harvard or Cambridge circa 1991 where some people tried to set up a daycare center (or something like that) catering to the poor and all the NIMBY elitists in town blocked their every move?

You're correct.Back in the 90's there was a school whose students were mainly younger black kids that relocated to a neighborhood populated by Harvard's elite.Not long after it opened these elites (including,among others,Laurence Tribe and Julia Child) were campaigning for the school to shut down.

They succeeded...IIRC the school only stayed open (in Cambridge at least) for less than a year.

If you have some spare time google "Commonwealth Day School"...lots of juicy stuff,a lot of it courtesy of the Harvard Crimson.
