Most of Cabrini is gone now. The plan is to make space for a mixed income neighborhood aka condominiums. The residents have been forced to relocate in a bid to make the neighborhood safer. Safer for who?

Check out a cool stop motion video by Ryan Flynn on the Huffington Post.

And Cabrini-Green.com "The Transformation of a Neighborhood" did a great job of covering the demolition process.
