The Collapse of the Peter Cooper Village/Stuyvesant Town Project in New York City.

The proposed development of Peter Cooper/Stuyvesant would have transformed rent controlled, middle class housing into market rate luxury apartments. Changes in the market, and an important legal decision threw the project off track. Lessons from a project that did not turn out as planned.
