- Headline: Crown Heights: Community Challenges Reexamined. Impact: The struggles in Crown Heights became a case study for future urban planners who decided that, instead of addressing the root causes of issues like unemployment and racial tension, they could just slap a 'gentrification' sticker on it and call it a day. Spoiler alert: that strategy didn't work out so well.. Fact: Fun fact: Crown Heights was the site of significant tension in the 1990s, which led to community activism that, ironically, still struggles with the same issues today. It's like history just loves to repeat itself, but with worse fashion choices!.
