A Warning From the Future

Tory Bullock, in "Dear Boston Luxury Condos"

Tory Bullock, a talented artist and lifelong resident of Boston,  takes us on a trip to a future that has already arrived in Boston, and that will happen here in Arlington if we're not careful. Bullock explains clearly how those shiny new condos springing up everywhere displace existing residents, and how this gentrification drives out the young, the old, those with lower incomes, the artists and strivers who keep a community diverse and vibrant.  Supplying new housing without prioritizing affordability isn't good for Boston, and it wouldn't be good for Arlington either.

You'll laugh, we promise!
