&gt; Moses destroyed the South Bronx, not created it
It depends on what you think of as the South Bronx. In many senses, Moses did both: he created the common demarcation for the region thought of as the South Bronx (the CBE), and thereby destroyed it.<p>&gt; routed his projects away from wealthy neighborhoods to destroy poor neighborhoods.<p>Yes, almost all of his projects had the common theme of benefiting a very precisely selected portion of the population. <i>The Power Broker</i> does a great job detailing Moses&#x27; biases, particularly during his parks development phase.
