I am very new to Hamilton and have a lot to learn. I'm trying to put together the jigsaw puzzle entitled "context".

From what I seen so far, some of the puzzle pieces include: the physical (and "mental") separation between the upper and lower city; broadly speaking, the income disparity between upper and lower; the decline in what must have been a vital and healthy downtown core; high streets that are now mini-expressways; lower city neighbourhoods which lack their own greengrocers, small shops, and the like; "upper towners" who don't visit the lower town; old-guard residents vs the young and civicly engaged; entrenched and uninterested elected officials.

So I hope to prepare a convincing story, as I think it's a great idea. I need to understand more and complete the puzzle.
