AN UNCERTAIN FUTURE
This area has historically been subject to top-down policy and planning decisions, and populated by vulnerable communities who have been at the whim of bigger forces.
There remains a strong community and cultural fabric, in the form of gathering spaces and formal and informal institutions.
The current development plans have thus far been community-centric, and we hope they will continue to empower current residents.
