Changes

Once a thriving metropolis on the banks of the Mississippi, St. Louis has decayed into a ghostly landscape of vacant houses, boarded-up storefronts, and abandoned factories. The Gateway City has become one of the most depopulated, deindustrialized, and [[segregation|segregated]] examples of American urban decay. The city's decay stems from multiple causes, ranging from private real estate [[zoning]] restrictions, poor local planning and zoning decisions, and [[Nanny state]] federal housing policies that led to a "white flight" of [[middle class]]es from the central city. A generation of [[liberal]] "urban renewal," aimed at eradicating blight, made it worse. The city's notorious high rise public housing units were finally dynamited.
