The entire BL&T gentrification of Harbor Point was...

The entire BL&T gentrification of Harbor Point was really, really sad to watch as a life long Stamford resident. Overpriced, cheaply made apartments that not even Stamford s own residents can afford due to the endless rent hikes over the years. They tried to make it accessible by filling out businesses up and down their neck of Washington Blvd, but this remains an area that is dangerous and in close proximity to quite a lot of crime. Another huge drug dealer just got popped on Henry Street just this week.

It s disgusting to see corporations try to capitalize on low income, ethnically diverse areas. Even more disgusting to watch it happen right around the corner from my home. Would have been nice to see BL&T actually integrate and provide some resources for the community. I don t know how they expect to ever fill those apartments when they ve built them right on top of a struggling community.
