This makes me think of Poletown, where, in 1981, General Motors and the cities of Detroit and Hamtramck, Michigan, used eminent domain to take over 1,300 homes, plus numerous businesses and churches, evicting about 4,000 people. They then leveled the whole area and built a Cadillac plant.

The plant was supposed to employ 6,500 workers, but most of the land was turned into parking lots and the plant only employed about 3,000 workers.
