Young Artist, Tory Bullock’s interactive game idea to help people understand the issues around Gentrification at the former Citizen’s Bank in Upham’s Corner, Dorchester.

In August 2018, the median rent, according to a Zillow survey, for a one-bedroom apartment in Boston was $2,366 — an exorbitant price for many. Mayor Marty Walsh’s housing plan calls for the preservation and construction of affordable apartments and home ownership opportunities to relieve renters and would-be owners.
