re: La Destroya is purposely destroying the city…….

Someone was telling me something like this. Like stopping gentrification was a top priority for her. To stop gentrification you have to make the questionable areas unwelcome for those who would "gentrify it".

I still eat a lot of lunches in the city but haven't been out there for dinner in a long time. That used to be one of my favorite weekend activities. Trying a new place in the city.
Coming back to a smashed window or having to worry about getting jacked just isn't worth it.
