Ever heard of Title I slum clearance? "Slums" were condemned to make way for housing projects, with private developers building and managing the properties.

Here is a page about Asbury Park, NJ-- it is a VERY run down former resort on the Jersey Shore, where most of the ocean front blocks were leveled to put condos on the property.
