Recomendations

I need to investigate further into where the residents who had to leave went. Me and other researchers need to look into if those residents went to quality homes. I would like to do a project on what life is like for the ex residents of Allen Wilson Terrace is like after moving out. Find out there feelings on the subject buy taking surveys. They are the people who's opinions matter and they are who I want to talk to.

I think that things around Decatur are going to change but hopefully things would change for the better but i can picture them changing for the worst. I feel that many people will have a pinions and based on how they voice them will shape the way things will change in this city of Decatur.

Reflection

I came into this research project with a very negative outlook on the public housing changes in Decatur but through my research i have found that there will be some good coming from the destruction of History. It was hard for me to come to the conclusion that it wasn't a terrible thing for Allen Wilson Terrace to be torn down. Next I will try to pick a topic that I did not have such a one sided opinion on. I feel that i had very fair and very well worded questions so i will keep those in the same kind of format. This research has taught me to let go of what is gone and try to look forward to the good that will follow. I have had nice experiences there but i have to let them go and have more at the new Allen Wilson Terrace
