the story of old pasadena

This week in class we are talking about the future and how to solve the housing crises. I would like to share with everyone the story of a little place in Los Angeles called Old Town. No more then 20 years ago, Old Town Pasadena was known as skid row. Abandoned store fronts, homelessness and drugs plagued Colorado Blvd. Today it is a thriving shopping district that attracts people from miles around. To learn more, visit this website. This is a real life rags to riches story.
