Pittsburgh's Public Housing Gets Major Makeover to Stem Crime from the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review 
"... Pittsburgh decided to start over, demolishing World War II-era projects and replacing them with spiffy apartments, townhouses and garden-style developments for people both eligible and ineligible for government assistance. It is an expensive undertaking: In the past five years alone, Pittsburgh spent about $165 million from the government and investors to build about 800 units of mixed-income housing."
