Part 07: Bailey Park Returns, a.k.a A Couple of Decent Rooms & a Bath

View descriptionShare

George Bailey’s do still exist today, as we witness with Seneca Falls’ community banker Menzo Case, following his efforts to create much-needed affordable housing via his own Bailey Park.  Ordinary Americans “do most of the working and paying and living and dying in this community,” George famously chastises Henry F. Potter, suggesting they ought to be able to do so “in a couple of decent rooms and a bath.”  How did working people come to be priced out of owning their own homes in modern small towns?  The Potters are revealed, and they are us:  “NIMBYs.”  SaveGeorgeBailey.com
