Considering that outside of the National Mall and the rich business district the city is a complete ghetto...rebuilding a walkable community is a great idea. I'm not sure what happens to the current population, but the new-comers who can afford the nicer houses will make the city a better place.

New Urbanism is a form of Gentrification I'm afraid. The poor can't afford these new houses and find themselves in the Projects after losing their slums.

But for now I'm not a member of that class so go ahead and build those pretty little condos!
