Urban Renewal is based on the view that "blighted" areas, or slums, needed to be "renewed". This
involved demolishing miles of small blocks, low income housing, and well-established neighborhoods, and
replacing them with large convention centers, multi-story high rises, and parking lots, while displacing the
many people that lived in the area previously.

According to Dr. King, Robert Moses represented the "expert" model where he thought that he knew what

more efficient when planned around the automobile.
