This morning, I sat at my outdoor table with my coffee and read the entire story, which is one page 1. It's only news in L.A. because a staffer made a hard enough pitch and got the go ahead with the story. It had nothing to do with L.A. or any of the issues we have with our own gentrification of downtown L.A. The writer (Erika Hayasaki) made Bed-Stuy sound like Disneyland (If she bothered to look south, Disney is under fire for blocking affordable housing near the park, in which many of their employees might have enjoyed living in). Congrats to the Brownstoner though, for being mentioned.
