Geography gentrification arts districts neighborhood change In this thesis, I employ a variety of methods to examine the changes in two neighborhoods, The Lowertown Neighborhood in Paducah, Kentucky and The Kernville Neighborhood in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, where each have recently launched programs designed to attract artists to renovate the housing stock. This thesis asks how these two arts districts were formed and what their morphology is, or how the physical form and the function of spaces that have been transformed. This thesis also examines the extent of gentrification that has occurred in Lowertown since the inception of the Artist Relocation Program in August of 2000. Throughout this thesis, comparisons are made to the SoHo (South Houston) Arts District in New York City, a thoroughly studied neighborhood that has experienced arts-driven revitalization and gentrification. 2007-08-28 English text Ohio University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1179941119 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1179941119 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
