What I don't understand about P-I...
They wanted to get rid of the slums....and they poured all this money into building P-I....
And they didn't work at keeping them maintained. They just raised rent for people that could barely live in the old slums. They didn't allow able-bodied men to even live in the buildings. Of course, once crime took over, that rule went out the window with all the other rules. But it's like they didn't even make any kind of effort. I get that it's a race thing....but c'mon. The project made a lot of people leave St. Louis....
