Brent Whelan writes in today's Crimson about Harvard's role in the Charlesview relocation - what Harvard's role has been to date (supporting an economically segregated plan, with low-income tenants clustered on one side of Western Ave., while luxury condos rise to ten stories above the river on the other side) and what its role could be (to reopen the conversation on Charlesview, and this time take a larger view of how this relocation could benefit us all).
