Abstract
Gentrification has had a huge impact on the neighborhoods in Brooklyn that I call home. Millions of people have been displaced from their homes from a surge of upper class newcomers. Yet, little is known about how these poor lower class minorities are actually affected by the changed aesthetics of the Borough. Drawing on content analysis, I examine a question that sparked my interest: “How has the changed aesthetics created by gentrification impacted rural urban areas of Brooklyn?”. The content analysis shows negative and positive reactions to the rapid changes of Boerum Hill. These findings shed light on what I’ve always wanted to accomplish, which is why and how these changes have affected the residents who have lived through “old Brooklyn” and now the new Brooklyn.
