In 1980 and 1990, Yonkers developed a national reputation for racial tension, which is based on the long-term fight between the City of Yonkers and the NAACP over the building of subsidized low-rent housing. The city wanted to use federal funds to create or expand high-rise housing projects in southwest Yonkers, the other groups, led by the NAACP, felt that if the subsidized housing traditionally poor neighborhoods, poverty remained. The climax of the battle came when Federal District Court Judge Leonard Sand of fine Yonkers which started at $ 1 and doubled every day until the City capitulated to a federally mandated plan.

Revitalization
The middle of the growing need for increased economic viability of Yonkers, a major revitalization of the project proposal, promising to add luxury housing, waterfront development, commercial and retail space, is for the city. What the city hopes to increase tourism and economic importance of the state and the county the project is one of the largest revitalization projects ever proposed in any location in accordance with the New York Metropolitan Area, totaling more than $ 3 billion, [5].

River Greenway to the concept of a natural path and commercial development has been the successful revitalization of downtowns in San Antonio, TX and Providence, RI.
Although many city officials and residents find much need for city revitalization and urban redevelopment efforts, controversy has been over the surface of the large project. Many residents feel the project is insidious attempt by the city government and project officials to implement a policy of outright gentrification.
