Summary: The Fine Art Of Gentrification

330 Words2 Pages

Gentrification, in this way, uses creativity as its justification (Blackwell, 2006). “The Fine Art of Gentrification” by Deutch and Ryan confirms that the aesthetisization of Toronto functions as capitalistic legitimization (Blackwell, 2006). In other words, capitalists are primarily profit enthusiasts, who defend their often disgraceful actions, evasively with an artistic and cultural reform. The distillery’s transformation from industrial production to commercial consumerism as the core of cultural arts is a crucial example of such an evasion. That is, gentrification takes advantage of using creative art to sugar coat the effects of neoliberalism (Blackwell, 2006). Neoliberalism creates “landscapes of desirability” as does New Urbanism (Lehrer,

    “The Borough’s residents paying more than 30 percent of their income in rent” (Bonislawski, pg.2, pp.3) Due to the “remodeling” of Brooklyn, the rent has drastically gone up. This is a way of purposely chasing out the poor to make room for the “trendies”. With the belief of a new and better Brooklyn will lead to more money and better neighborhoods, it feels like those that were born in Brooklyn are being forced out of it. A new source of capitalism has taken place, a capitalism based off of the “hip and trendy” in order to draw in the more financially efficient. “Trying to evade, principles of development is economically futile” (Jacobs.chpter1.pg8, pp.1) it’s true that we can’t continue to evade the new development of a environment because it will lead to an economic

Using their conceptual framework for analysis (Peck, Theodore and Brenner 2009) examples of these three general strategies of neoliberalization in urban planning and rebuilding are adapted and organized to fit into neoliberalization’s creative destruction process, (Peck et al. 2009) (table 1). This process of destroying and creating occurs as “moments” and is contextually “embedded” and “path-dependent”: ”we emphasize the contextual embeddedness of neoliberal restructuring projects insofar as they have been produced within national, regional, and local contexts defined by the legacies of inherited institutional frameworks, policy regimes, regulatory practices, and political struggles. An understanding of actually existing neoliberalism must therefore explore the path-dependent, contextually specific interactions between inherited regulatory landscapes and emergent neoliberal, market-oriented restructuring projects at a broad range of geographical scales.

    Lance Freeman, an associate professor of urban planning in Columbia, wanted to investigate if there was any displacement going on in two predominantly black neighborhoods that was briskly gentrifying. Much to his dismay, he couldn’t find any correlation between gentrification and displacement. What was surprising to Freeman was his discovery, “poor residents and those without a college education were actually less likely to move if they resided in gentrifying neighborhoods”. (Sternbergh, 19) Freeman adds, “The discourse on gentrification, has tended to overlook the possibility that some of the neighborhood changes associated with gentrification might be appreciated by the prior residents.” (Sternbergh, 19)

    There has to be a realistic solution that can be put into motion to benefit everyone involved. Referring again to his article “Is Gentrification All Bad?” Davidson argues that urban renewal, if done right, is not a monstrous custom that it is painted to be; nevertheless, he reasons that gentrification depends on who does it, how they do it, and why they do it. As a resident in New York, a city where gentrification is as widespread as the common cold in winter, Davidson speculates that those who go into a neighborhood with the intention to renovate houses, or abandoned buildings ought to have a good reason for it. The author points out that “Gentrification does not have to be something that one group inflicts on another…” (Davidson 349), rather, he suggests that everyone, the gentrifiers and the locals, be on the same page when it comes to developing their

  • Gentrified Neighborhoods

    378 Words  | 2 Pages

    Gentrifying a once rundown neighborhood into a vibrant, more attractive environment is a trendy, urban operation that has been prevalent in Philadelphia. It has transformed the lives of many Philadelphians and the new community members that move into these neighborhoods tend to be young, wealthy, white folks. However, the former impoverished residents that are relocated and kicked out of these now newly gentrified neighborhoods are nevertheless part of the population and economic class that contribute to the landscape of the city. It is a shame to think the problem of poverty is pushed away in an apathetic manner. There should at least be a mix of housing options in these neighborhoods in order to keep the authenticity of the neighborhood.
