- Description
- "This book tackles the issues of vacancy in St. Louis starting out from the city zooming in to the street then on the block ... Between 1950 and 1970, close to 60 percent of the white population fled the city. By 1970, the locus of white settlement had moved to the western extents of St. Louis County, racial progression and white voyage now reached the inner-ring suburbs sitting east of the city's Northside, and the older Northside neighborhoods were mostly abandoned."
