When a town claims it wants "artists" for its "arts district," what it really wants are architects, graphic designers, maybe a few working classical musicians tucked in there, & other well-behaved professional types. The last thing real estate investors want is "affordable housing." An "arts district" is a ploy to go directly to gentrification.
