I'll Always Remember the Robert Taylor Homes: None yet

Before it was demolished, the Robert Taylor Homes was one of America's largest Housing Developments. Nestled five miles from downtown Chicago, and divided from the rest of city by an expressway and electrical rail system, there were many stories of crime and mayhem and general disdain for the apartment complex and those who lived there. Brenda Costanzo writes her story of being a resident and telling raw and gritty anecdotes from a first-person perspective about what life was like living in Robert Taylor. Her memoir is a testimony of survival and overcoming the odds.
