Soon There Won't Be a Barrio Logan
So I can understand the pros and cons of the area transformation. My family was and will always be apart of Chicano Park and Barrio Logan. Recently I lived in a little house right smack in the middle of both areas on 16th St. between Logan Ave. and Commercial. I have seen the way people live there from the homeless to the Mexican people further south, it doesn't matter who you are the community is changing. I believe that downtown is a pressure cooker about to explode and the family community that don't want to live in the highrise hussle and bussle area will move toward East village and down towards Logan but will get a rude awakening by the younger thug group of kids that don't understand change. I was born in 1977 and my parents helped in developing the surrounding area. I loved this story speaking of the historical past that I never knew about pushing thru to the now. The bottom line is that "money makes the world go round," the ballpark will continue to affect the transformation in the community. Something tells me that this is not the last we will hear of the situation.— October 9, 2009 9:23 a.m.
