Show Notes

In 2000, Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley unveiled the “Plan for Transformation,” a decade-long initiative that demolished Chicago’s public highrises, overhauled the city's public housing system, and displaced thousands of Chicagoans. Author Natalie Moore and investigative reporter Mick Dumke have both covered the legacy of the Plan for Transformation and tracked the city’s claims about its overall success. We ask them both, how successful was the ‘Plan for Transformation, and how many of its lofty promises have gone unrealized to this day.
