Mexican Mega Real Estate Projects Only Benefit a Few, Critics Charge
  • 9 years ago
Mexico City is awash in mega real estate projects that authorities cite as a sign of progress and economic growth.

Residents are mobilizing to halt what they decry as uncontrolled urban development, much of it linked to corruption. Clayton Conn reports from Mexico City. teleSUR
