"New York City does zoning without planning. Its zoning changes are displacing low-income communities of color while protecting segregated neighborhoods. Its "affordable housing" is not truly affordable. Case studies of Willliamsburg, Harlem and Chinatown show how race matters but is not acknowledged in land use and housing policies. Zoned Out! proposes ways to address inequalities, promote authentic community-based planning, and housing in the public domain."--Publisher's description.
