In place of the old, poorly maintained apartments and dense streetscapes, \"rehabbers\" imagined a new kind of neighborhood--a modern community that combined the convenience, diversity, and character of a historic urban quarter with the prosperity and privileges of a new subdivision. \u003c\/p\u003e But as property values rose, longtime residents found themselves being evicted to make room for progress--and they began to assert their own ideas about the future of Lincoln Park. As divisions deepened over the course of the 1960s, debate gave way to increasingly violent demonstrations. Each camp became further entrenched as they tried to settle the eternal questions of city planning: Who is a neighborhood for? And who gets to decide?\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDaniel Kay Hertz\u003c\/strong\u003e has written about urban issues for a number of outlets, including City Observatory, The Atlantic, Chicago Magazine, South Side Weekly, and the Chicago Reader.
