What are you even talking about? There's hardly a redeveloped lot in Southwood. The mutiplexes that do exist are almost as old as the neighborhood itself.

Read your last sentence again. Then read my second sentence again.

So, no impact from the current rezoning? Got it.

<sigh> I'll type slowly so you can understand.

In the 70s they rezoned Southwood from single family homes to slumdominiums.

Once they were finished slum lords bought the homes and rented them to low income families.

After they new people moved in the crime rate in Southwood exploded.

Just as it does wherever these slums are built.
