The gentrification of Fairmount seems like it would be kinda interesting to live over there. I like some of the old neighborhood nodes where they actually had small businesses there at the intersections. Seems like something that got lost in the suburbification of our culture.
Several years ago when I had a job requiring me to travel all over the metromess, I saw how developments that were begun after I graduated HS or college had run their life cycle and were boarded up or converted into secondary/tertiary - but always inferior - uses, and I reflected on what a waste it had been. A couple of nights a week I watch travel shows and find it really fascinating how many older cultures have shops/pubs/bakeries that go back generations, or even hundreds of years. I think I could really dig living in a culture that reveres its history, rather than building more Panera Bread stores (no offense, I like their food), Starbucks, Foot Locker or what-have-you.
Yeah Fairmount is the place to be if you got the moolah.
Weird- I've had the same observation about the life cycle of various areas. Also, I have lived long enough to see specific homes go through multiple cycles of decay and renewal.
