  • Gowanus Gentrified?
    Gowanus Gentrified? Community Responses to Gentrification and Economic Development in the Shadow of the Superfund Michael Spitzer-Rubenstein Senior Thesis for the Urban Studies Program Barnard College, Columbia University Submitted April 18, 2012 Thesis Advisor: Meredith Linn Abstract Gowanus is an industrial neighborhood changing into a gentrified area, but it faces such severe pollution that the EPA designated the Gowanus Canal, which bisects the area, a Superfund site in 2010. The industry still in Gowanus includes a mix of traditional industrial businesses, craft industries, and artists, but they might disappear if developers build luxury condos in the neighborhood. This study looks at the clash between activists over how the community has and will change, focusing on the pro-development Gowanus Canal Community Development Corporation and the preservationist and pro-Superfund Friends and Residents of Greater Gowanus. Many local activists embrace the vision of Gowanus as a place for making things and hope to maintain industry. Even though industry left the neighborhood polluted, most do not connect the two. The Superfund seeks to clean up the neighborhood but it may pave the way for environmental gentrification, which is the pollution cleanup causing gentrification. However, fears of the Superfund harming home prices do not appear to be true; GIS analysis shows that land closest to environmental hazards increased the most in value. Residents also hope to avoid the experiences of other New York neighborhoods, which saw gentrification cause displacement. More than residential displacement, though, activists worry about the culture of Gowanus disappearing and hope to save it. Their remedies such as historic preservation and zoning Gowanus for mixed use may not be effective or viable, though.

  • Introduction
    Introduction here’s an exquisite short story by the writer Laurie Colwin that T perfectly captures the lure of living in other people’s houses. The story, which is called “The Lone Pilgrim,” is about a sensitive and rather lonely young book illustrator whose greatest pleasure is being the ideal houseguest and observing firsthand what she describes as “the closed graceful shapes of other people’s lives.” She spends an October night when the moon is full in an old house in a college town, a sleeping dog by the stove, an apple pie in the oven, and atop a window ledge a jar of homemade jam and cuttings of grape ivy in a cracked mug. A rainy night that reminds her of England finds her in a 19th-century brownstone where the mood is set by polished mold- ing, leaded windows, a Spode platter, and a walnut dining table. On yet another occasion, she is ensconced in a house in Maine where the décor includes fancy-back spoons and bouquets of dried flowers in lusterware pitchers. “The Lone Pilgrim” was published in 1981, a moment when people were becoming increasingly obsessed with the places where they lived, be it lovingly restored town house or reclaimed loft in an abandoned industrial district. But the story speaks to us not simply because Col- win captured a shred of the zeitgeist or because of her lapidary prose. We’re also drawn to the subject matter. We’re fascinated by what homes and their contents reveal about other people’s lives. That’s one reason so many people love Victorian novels, with their wealth of domestic detail and their lush evocation of the rooms in which characters’ lives unfold.
