    The Hydrostone - A Hidden Property Management Disaster

    With a lot of talk around Black Lives Matter, there is a lot to be said about Neighborhood Planning and its own version of "Redlining"  Part 1 outlines the origins of the Hydrostone, a lead up to one of the worst incidences of racial neighborhood profiling in our history - AFRICVILLE. I'll outline the disaster that prompted it and lead you all the way to the present, where it continues to be one of the worst examples of systemic racism, where those in power continue to weaponize the law and use it against them. Script The Hydrostone! When I was a kid and I said that name! It gave me goosebumps! I don’t know why I found it really scary probably my anxiety but it was as if that phrase... it had that SAME effect hearing THE HYDRA from Avengers had before I even knew anything about the Avengers. When you see that part of town in Halifax Nova Scotia you’ll see that it makes sense. ZEMO doesn’t live there, no. It’s named after these equally scary industrial bricks, created to get the area out of a horrific mass property disaster. It’s this heavy gray stone, mimicking that pebble beach vibe but not as warm and fuzzy . By today’s standards, It’s making a trendy out-of-the-box-neighbourhood with materials from the CROODS. It’s not a romantic product it’s thick heavy it’s dense but it’s PRACTICAL. It’s got a really heavy energy but they HAD to use that product! They needed to ramp up a P3 project and literally out of the ashes they made a high-end neighborhood. Almost overnight. Time: 1:12
