Also there are too many minorities living in those areas, some of whom would remain thus defeating the whole "build build build" YIMBY agenda. We need a massive new project handed entirely to 1 or 2 prime contractors so we can have our "urbanism" meme features like a public-private pedestrian plaza with outdoor dining, minus the stuff that YIMBYs don't like, such as tenant rights, brown/black people, ADA compliance, or shops that don't cater to 20s-30s yuppie transplants with doctor dads.
