Vocabulary for Unit 9 Urban renewal – A construction program to replace or restore substandard buildings in urban areas. Zoning – Land use and zoning laws involve the regulation of the use and development of real estate. Eminent domain – The government’s power to take private land for public use. Environmental justice – Development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental policies and laws to ensure that no group or community is made to bear a disproportionate share of harmful effects of pollution or environmental hazards because it lacks economic or political clout.

Assessing two different people Robert Moses and Majora Carter saw their roles differently and responded to different stakeholders. Both have influenced the way that New York looks, how it works, and who benefits from its policies. Moses held positions of official authority; Carter did not. What was your initial perception of each individual after first reading about him or her?

Robert Moses Robert Moses was one of the most powerful men in New York from the late 1920s until the late 1960s, using multiple appointed positions in state and local government to make his vast dream of a modern New York comes to fruition. That dream included glorious parkways and gravity-defying bridges. It also included parking lots and the wholesale destruction of thousands of homes. World's fairs and innovative housing complexes. Elevated highways plowed through residential neighborhoods -- straight through Harlem, midtown Manhattan, and SoHo.

Majora Carter Majora Carter is a visionary voice in city planning who views urban renewal through an environmental lens. The South Bronx native draws a direct connection between ecological, economic and social degradation. Hence her motto: "Green the ghetto!" With her inspired ideas and fierce persistence, Carter managed to bring the South Bronx its first open- waterfront park in 60 years, Hunts Point Riverside Park. Then she scored $1.25 million in federal funds for a greenway along the South Bronx waterfront, bringing the neighborhood open space, pedestrian and bike paths, and space for mixed-use economic development.Hunts Point Riverside Park

Criticism of Moses and Carter Moses preferred autos to people He uprooted traditional neighborhoods He precipitated the decline of public transportation He caused the departure of the Dodgers and Giants Carter has taken sole credit for projects when others equally helped Job programs called “cash for caulkers” She used her position as an Olympic torch bearer for political activism after pledging not to do so
