Description: Atlanta wanted an end to its public housing projects-- no more pockets of

poverty, crime, and despair. In the 1990s, the city started tearing the projects down,

replacing them with mixed-income neighborhoods. The shining success story of this

effort? East Lake, which turned “Little Vietnam” into a safe, beautiful community.

We’ll meet the people who made it happen. When so much can go wrong, how did

East Lake get it right?
