TASK: Gentrification is happening in global cities around the world as we have seen first-hand here in Miami. For this assignment, you will explore a city in Europe and assess how gentrification has impacted the surrounding community. Follow the directions below and thoroughly answer the following questions. You can answer each question separately or put together a written response (more like a one-page paper). Be sure to include in-text citations and list your sources at the end of your submission.
1. First, identify an area within Europe that is experiencing gentrification. Examples include but are not limited to East Berlin; Zagreb, Croatia; Barcelona, Spain; Lisbon, Portugal; Amsterdam, Netherlands; Paris, France.
2. Explore and research this area (which could include using tools such as Google Maps or more traditional sources such as lecture, news articles, documentaries, journal articles, our textbook, etc.). Describe the impacts – both the physical changes and the resulting impacts on the surrounding community.
3. Make an argument regarding whether this trend is bettering or worsening this particular area. At the end of your submission, please list any sources used to complete this assignment.
