- Description/Excerpt: A Tribune investigation found that almost nine years into what was billed as a 10-year program, the city has completed only 30 percent of the plan's most ambitious element—tearing down entire housing projects and replacing them with new neighborhoods where poor, working-class and wealthier families would live side by side.
In fact, of those public housing units that have been built, nearly half went up before the plan officially started in 2000.
