Oops, late response, but thank you for playing! Troy has an interesting history, going from one of the richest cities in the country to very neglected, but now on a bit of an upswing again. A fascinating book about issues connected to urban renewal, including public housing is The Color of Law by Richard Rothstein--I'm reading it now and it's been really eye-opening.
No problem on the late response--I've definitely let things drop myself!
I haven't even gotten to a couple of your transcripts that I meant to, for stuff I wrote and need to make a post comp version for. But the ones I do have helped immensely. So count this as a blanket thanks for all your support this year!
