[quote=Anonymous]The process started well before Frumin, see the series WP did on Sedgewick Gardens. Even though the plan is to fill units with those making 60-80% median income, in DC, voucher holders must be accepted, even in such set aside units. It is illegal to not accept them. It’s important to be clear that rent controlled buildings, depended on by the elderly, single moms, etc. are being swapped out for private public housing by Bowser initiatives. We may think this would provide housing for teachers, nurses, etc but that may well not be who ends up there. Prostitution and drug dealing take place in and around many buildings on Connecticut and Wisconsin that have become 50%+ vouchers. [/quote]
