Abstract
The politics of the City changed dramatically after the assassinations of Milk and Moscone. But the trend of money and development had come to change the tone before that with the collapse of discussions to save the I-Hotel. Goodman Tenants knew their time was limited and a deal was cut to save the building and move the tenants to another location that would be guaranteed as low-cost housing for the future. This chapter will introduce a short digression from chapter 12 to focus on events in 1979 and 1980 that give wider form to what effected the tenants and their supporters in the period before the eviction.
