Participant Perspective: Maribel
Aug 10, 2020
"Me siento diferente porque he cambiado muchas cosas. Ya estoy tranquila en un hogar nuevo."
“Estoy muy contenta en mi nueva casa.” “I’m very happy in my new house.”
Like all residents of the former Whitter Street Apartments in Roxbury, Maribel had to move out of her home so that her apartment building could be torn down and rebuilt.
She was relocated to the Ruth Barkley Apartments in the South End in October 2018, where she lived until her new apartment building was completed. In August 2019 she moved back to the Whittier neighborhood, into one of the new mixed-income buildings.
