THE END HAS FINALLY COME TO ONE OF THE COUNTRIES MOST NOTORIOUS "PROJECTS"...

As the last families are moved out of the Cabrini-Green Housing project, the notorious Chicago public housing complex whose name became synonymous with failures of public housing, will be completely demolished and enter into the annals of history. The end of Cabrini-Green, whose public housing towers were made famous in the 70s sitcom “Good Times” and has often been studied by policy and social welfare experts in the U.S., has evoked mixed emotions from long-time residents, who feel pushed out by developers, and those who are happy to see the end of large complexes that act as a hotbed for violence and poverty.
