Abstract

This oral history interview with Gene Tracy, conducted on October 29, 2003, by Michelle Burk, explores Tracy's experiences and observations of the Tremont neighborhood in Cleveland, Ohio. Tracy discusses his long-term familiarity with the area, the changes brought by gentrification, and the impact on the local artist community. He reflects on the transformation of Tremont from a vibrant, diverse neighborhood into one increasingly dominated by wealthier new residents and developers, leading to the displacement of original inhabitants. The interview provides insights into the social dynamics, cultural shifts, and challenges faced by long-time residents as they navigate the evolving landscape of their community.
