York and Fig

Marketplace has been running a series on gentrification in Highland Park called York and Fig. I am not sure how I might use this, but there are so many ideas around gentrification, urban renewal, and capitalism that might be interesting to consider. I think this would be a cool piece to integrate with an economic class or a set on the working poor. Another aspect with this series to consider is how the writers become part of the story. Similarly to Serial, at what point are the reporters a piece of what is being reported; in this case the first part of the story opens with the tagging of the bureau that the Marketplace reporters are moving into.
