The Ball Park in Johnson City

First you see some public housing out of the last century. Small home feel with open spaces and there's a big public pool right down the road. Better than the big complexes in Cabrini Green style but I don't think collecting a bunch of poor people together in any style is good public policy. Its not good for the people living in that area. It's not good to have schools fed by large numbers of poor kids. And the adjacent properties you see in later pics do not make for a good location for anybody. Imagine that being across the street all the time. I post these images of America because I see the beauty in these scenes. But I bet the kids who grow up there don't see it that way. At least they have the baseball games next door that they can go to. But they're probably not spending a lot of money and time there.
