Gentrification has been a controversial issue, when arguments are powered by feelings and incidents on which to happen are supposedly improving the people in the community. As big businesses move into an area that was normally populated by small businesses, the mom and pop shops are flat-out disappearing one by one.

These questions have been wrestling through my thoughts as I investigate more on gentrification, are gentrifying communities have a positive impact on the small businesses? Or is it just for increasing, the economy and letting small businesses struggle to stand? In this paper, I would be following up on how many changes occurred after the document of "My Brooklyn" by Kelly Anderson.
