A captivating memoir of New York's Historic Upper West Side at a time when community and unity defined the neighborhood Step into the world of Just City and embark on a poignant journey to a time when ideals were woven into the very fabric of a neighborhood. Jennifer Baum's evocative storytelling brings to life an era in New York City's history where affordable housing wasn't just a concept, but a reality that defined the essence of community. Within the pages of this captivating memoir, you'll find yourself transported to the historic Upper West Side--a place where diversity flourished and a shared belief in the importance of a home for all bound the residents together. Through personal anecdotes and heartfelt accounts, Baum illuminates her own upbringing alongside the stories of those who shared her neighbor-hood.

As she moves around the world for school, a husband, and work, she tells the story of her search for a home that would embody the values and community she grew up with. Just City goes beyond the physicality of housing; it unveils the emotional tapestry of housing for an entire generation. As you immerse yourself in the stories of rallies, grassroots efforts, and the sense of kinship that defined this era, you'll witness a generation that stood united for justice and fairness. The book captures not just moments, but the ethos of a time when the city was a testament to the power of community. Celebrate the legacy of an era when a city was truly a home, when principles of social respon-sibility thrived. Just City isn't just a memoir--it's an invitation to revive the spirit of unity and create a city where everyone belongs. So open its pages and let its words rekindle the flame of a just and inclusive city once more.
