Paper Summary:

This paper considers issues associated with upgrading and revitalizing their so-called "downtown" or central city areas. It also addresses problems such as removing and/or relocating the poor and minorities who tend to live there now, as well as trying to persuade businesses to either return or stay. According to the paper, the economy is driving more and more people to internet shopping or nearby malls instead of a shopping trip downtown.

From the Paper:

So, one needs to see the downside, look into e-commerce, the growth of suburban malls, as well as downtown revitalization...."
