Cabrini-Green, the public housing complex once infamous nationwide as a symbol of crime and urban blight, has been slowly demolished over the past two decades. African American residents were scattered around the city, replaced by new retail and sleek condos for wealthier taxpayers. At one time, the crime-ridden complex was home to 15,000 people. The Neighborhood was near the North Community Area. Formerly “Swede Town” or “Little Sicily” and then “Little Hell,” the site of the Cabrini-Green public housing complex was notorious in the early twentieth century for its inhabitants' poverty and dilapidated buildings.
