No dogs allowed; normalizing the privilege of displacement.
This building allows dogs. The lawn and garden around the building has no dogs allowed signs (with a dog shitting graphic).
This is another example of how gentrifying investment burdens communities. The building wants to minimize maintenance costs and preserve the aesthetic for residents (which they paid for). The surrounding community must provide walking space and inevitable cleaning and maintenance that comes from higher traffic.
Unless everyone puts up signs or fences or has lawn maintenance contracts, more work is downloaded to low income communities, with only the promise of an 'improved' neighbourhood appeal, and higher property values (ie. taxes, and resulting unsustainability), the reward.
(M. walked in just as I had the shot right and I was damned if I was going to wait. )
