A mayor's journal part one
I was born in this town....when i was little i was playing in the house backyard by the river. Later on i was sititng with the boys of my age at the bars near the beach looking at the girls. I saw this city growing and i saw it falling apart.
When i decided to run for mayor the city was worse than Detroit. Crime everywere, high level of abandonment. The freeway was looking more like an dystopian ghetto avenue. Lack of schools, lack of hospitals the slums spreading everywere, industry was almost dead.....no ships in the harbour.....this city was dying.....
And here i am now......mayor of this city...who would imagine that....I won the elections with 75%. People really felt the need for a change.
Looking back i\m really proud of my first projects.
First of all i rebuild the freeway with soundwalls and nightlights. Also i build springfield overpass. I had to do some demolitions but hard times call for hard measures. And the results came up very quicly. New office and residential developemnt took over the slums and springfields is turning into a nice vibrant suburb.
The next project will be even greater. and of course a lot of homes must be demolished but in the end that old small rural looking river will become a big channel. Yes i will turn this city to face the river.
Even Cadiilac moved in and build a factory. So i\m very oprimist regarding the future.
