No gay development, gentrification, economic issues going on here:



None here either.

Sad that you live there and are so unaware of the issues.
All these gentrification examples are a red herring. Just because you bring in shopping and eateries, create jobs, and increase the overall economic footprint by giving preference to locally-owned businesses, it doesnt mean you are adding value. Gays are NOT adding value in this neighborhood. Get your facts straight.
