Daily News | A developer said Chinatown is ‘positive-to-neutral’ on the Sixers arena. Not so, say community members.
Ellen Somekawa walked around Chinatown in Washington, D.C., and saw a shadow of what once was.
Adelman and others have held information sessions for certain community members, with one open meeting organized by Philadelphia Chinese Community Organizations United most widely attended two weeks ago. Other community members felt gaslit and misunderstood by the way the 76 Devcorp addressed concerns — or failed to acknowledge there would be any potential negative impact on the community at all.
“It’s very clear that they have no understanding of the history of resistance in Chinatown,” she said. Wei estimated that from her conversations with community members, fewer than 10 percent are supportive of the arena, roughly two-thirds are opposed and about 20 percent are undecided. a steering committee made up of community organizations and members to come up with solutions. Gould added that they have received positive feedback from community members they have been in touch with about their cultural sensitivity.
