"Offensive and Ignorant Liar:" Downtown Eastside Outraged that Pantages Owner Calls Neighbourhood a "Dead Zone"
July 29, 2011 - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Downtown Eastside residents are outraged at Pantages site owner and condo developer Marc William’s recent PR blitz declaring the DTES a “dead zone” with “no activity in the past 30 years except drug dealing”...“The DTES is an alive community, people live here. How can Williams get away with such poor-bashing statements? Williams is lying when he says that no one will be displaced. Condos displace low income residents by pushing up land values and rents.”
