The narrative explores the transformation of Elmhurst-Corona in Queens, New York, from a predominantly white neighborhood in the 1960s to a diverse community by the 1990s, reflecting broader trends in urban America. It examines the effects of racial change, immigrant settlement, and local governance, particularly during the fiscal crisis of 1975. Through the lens of community interactions, civic engagement, and political struggles, the book highlights how residents navigated challenges and built alliances across racial and ethnic lines, offering insights into future urban dynamics.
