How some South Koreans will be living...and how abandonment of U.S. rust belt cities stands in contrast.
Not meant as a future vision for Lake Worth and I am not condoning the filling swampland or promoting the construction of high-rise buildings, but showing that the real "growth" in the world is taking place on the Asian continent. More on China shortly - excuse the commercial before the Good Morning America segment. Remember, ABC is owned by Disney.
Click here for a review of the economic and residential abandonment of cities such as Flint, Michigan and a unique response to those challenges - quite a contrast. If you read the article, some of these approaches could be used in Lake Worth, but they would have to be tailored quite differently to our circumstances.
Click here for a slide show of just one of 400 such residential blocks in Flint.
We are much more at risk becoming the Flint example than the South Korean example.
