The local community viewed this as a declaration of war. What followed was a remarkable struggle that not only saved the heritage architecture from destruction but also protected local residents from gentrification through the creation of the largest nonprofit cooperative housing project on an urban community land trust in North America. And Milton Parc is not unique. Villages in Cities takes us across North America--to New York, Boston, Burlington, Oakland, Jackson, Montreal, Toronto, Ottawa, and Vancouver--to show concrete examples of citizens taking back the land and claiming their right to secure housing. The book draws connections among these projects, examines their underlying causes, and connects them with a holistic "Right to the City" movement that is emerging internationally. 606 $aHousing$zCanada$xData processing 606 $aLand trusts 607 $aMontre?al (Que?bec)$xHistory 607 $aMilton-Parc (Montre?al, Que?bec)$xHistory 615 0$aHousing$xData processing. 615 0$aLand trusts. 676 $a301.540971 686 $acci1icc$2lacc 686 $acoll13$2lacc 700 $aHawley$b Joshua$f1988-$01642557 702 $aRoussopoulos$b Dimitrios I. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910828033303321 996 $aVillages in cities$93987332 997 $aUNINA
