I am glad to see this project moving along. I was privy to conversation the other day however where someone was saying that Agape Table moving out of that little hall is the moment people are going to look back on and say 'that was when gentrification hit West Broadway.'

I couldn't help but think (after having lived in Austin TX from 2009-2014) hmm, I don't think 'gentrification' is quite the right word to use here.

I have found some research by Jennifer Logan and Marc Vachon saying the G word is for sure happening in West Broadway, but to my mind, the area is still a little too rough around the edges for most people. I don't even have a solid definition of gentrification either, just a feeling that it has to do with people moving into an area because of some hipster cache...

What do you guys think, is West Broadway gettin gentrified?
